I am running for Congress as a proud Democrat. I’ve voted for and financially supported countless amazing Democrats like Joe Biden, Jamie Raskin, and David Trone. I held a fundraiser for Elizabeth Warren in my home.

talking about his Fetterman endorsement so I start doing some research.
I see Cheri Jacobus the ex Republican is backing him & then find out he has voted Republican in the last few Maryland primaries. Something isn’t adding up..

Is it a serious suggestion that COL (R) means I’m a Republican? The “R” stands for retired, as I am a retired Colonel after serving in the U.S. Army for 25 years — including deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan earning a Bronze Star and Combat Action Badge.

You have to understand why Dem voters question things, especially now. We’ve had SEVERAL Republicans convincingly run as Democrats, win, then switch their party affiliation within weeks or months of taking office. So yeah. Valid questions.

Geoffrey..as a person living in an area where a Big City mayor just flipped to Republican..in a state where money talks..
We feel we have a right to vet any & all running for office..from prior party affliations to donors..to campaign staff.
Ought to be the easy stuff to answer
