RECENT ATTACKS FROM FELLOW REPUBLICAN ARE JUST MORE OF THE SAME PARTISAN POLITICAL GAMES

CHERRY HILL – NJ CD-1 GOP candidate Josh Duvall released the following statement:

“When I announced my campaign to challenge Donald Norcross for the NJ CD-1 seat next November, I started my appeal to voters as a ‘post-partisan’ candidate running a campaign built on honesty, decency, and integrity – working towards solutions for all of South Jersey. I’m proud of the campaign I’ve run thus far – meeting with voters from all political points of view, traveling across the district, hosting public events, and engaging with more than 100,000 people on social media alone. I’m also proud of the type of candidate I am – a middle class husband, father, worker and business owner who is growing increasingly disgusted with the status quo of partisan politics in our country.”

“That’s why the recent attacks from Mrs. Gustafson came as a surprise to me. As the only filed candidate running for the GOP ticket against Donald Norcross, I have to assume her negative comments were directed at me. She labeled me as ‘wishy-washy’, ‘pandering’, weak on pro-life issues and the Second Amendment – among other things.”

“According to her statement, it seems Mrs. Gustafson is more interested in playing partisan political games than appealing to our broad base of registered voters, nearly 85% of whom were registered as something other than Republican in the last Presidential election cycle.”

“While Mrs. Gustafson is positioning herself as the most pro-Trump candidate, I’m focused on highlighting the policy failures of our current elected official Donald Norcross, his ties to the EDA tax break scandal making daily headlines, and the continued progression of a national Democratic party that has moved too far left for middle class voters in South Jersey.”

“No matter who attacks me, whether it be Republicans, Democrats, or Progressives – I’m banking my candidacy on a single solitary truth – voters want a candidate they can feel good about voting for…instead of always casting their ballot as a way of voting against someone they dislike.”
