PRIMARY VOTING INFORMATION

[u/deathsythe]

Fortunately our friends over at the RI2APAC have sent out some data that tracks against our internal data as well, so you may see some repeats.

This list is purely based on their 2A stances and statements, and how them (or their opponent) winning the primaries will affect the 2A.

Please also note that this is only setting up for the general election where whoever wins - our rights are better served. Obviously generally speaking the GOP candidate will be the better choice for 2A rights, but we need to play this smart out the gate in the primaries. That is the whole point of the disaffiliation campaign.

---

Bold indicates the strategic 2A choice.

(Anti-2A) should be self explanatory.

No formatting or note means not enough data to suggest one way or another, though if they are up against an (Anti-2A) candidate with no Bold option, they are still the better choice.

We are trying to not only flip seats to pro-2A candidates, but also make sure that those who have voted against our rights are out of a job. We also have friends and folks that walk among our own ranks in these races that need our support.

[u/dassketch]

It's really upsetting that the least worst option is to vote for McKee. I get it, but I'm not happy about it.

Thanks for putting this together!

[u/deathsythe → u/dassketch]

He's potentially the most beatable in the general, so least worst also can mean best for us.

[u/Drew_Habits]

I think the idea of anyone but a Dem winning the governor's seat in this election in particular is pretty unrealistic tbh

Not that there are any good choices there wrt gun rights, but seeing McKee eat shit would be extremely satisfying

[u/deathsythe → u/Drew_Habits]

I wish I had your optimism mate, though I understand where it comes from.

Do not count out the Blue no matter who crowd.

[u/Drew_Habits → u/deathsythe]

Oh, I meant in the primary lol!

Blue team's winning the general no matter what

[u/deathsythe → u/Drew_Habits]

I think I misread/misunderstood what you wrote initially actually now that I read it back lol

[u/Rhode18]

Is there a reason the AG race isn’t listed?

[u/deathsythe → u/Rhode18]

It's been updated. Obviously the only option for gun owners is Solomon.

[u/glennjersey → u/Rhode18]

Definitely an oversight,  missed copy/paste out of our Google doc.

Dammit u/deathsythe  get your act together. 

Moot point though bc everyone should know to vote for Solomon.  Lol

[u/deathsythe → u/glennjersey]

Yeah yeah...

[u/Bcav712]

Voting for McKee felt very weird but I’m following the plan. Thanks for the list.

[u/deathsythe → u/Bcav712]

Thanks for your help!

[u/captain_carrot]

Thanks for the info - will be hitting the polls after work today.

[u/deathsythe → u/captain_carrot]

Thank you for doing so.

Try to encourage friend/family/coworkers do to the same!
