VOTERGA REQUESTS ANSWERS FROM CANDIDATE RICK JACKSON
Dear Candidate Rick Jackson for Governor,
Runoff voting is starting and since you have declined to participate in the runoff debate, important questions have been left unanswered about your candidacy and campaign. We have over 20,000 election integrity followers and supporters and request these answers prior to voting to help clarify apparent contradictions between your statements and the known facts. Some of our questions are:
1. How can you claim to be an “outsider” when records show Jackson Healthcare subsidiaries received roughly a billion dollars in mostly no bid contracts from Georgia state agencies since 2020?
2. If you are on the “Trump train”, as you have mentioned several times, why are you spending over $100 million trying to destroy President Trump’s endorsed candidate for governor, Burt Jones?
3. How do you justify your Christian values while running a $100 million negative ad campaign using dark money and sketchy assertions against Trump endorsed Lieutenant Governor Burt Jones?
4. Why have most of us who have been active at the legislature for the last decade never heard about those sketchy negative assertions until you started your gubernatorial campaign?
5. Why did you say in the primary debate you “don’t know” if you employ undocumented workers when you were deposed twice in a case where an undocumented landscaper at your mansion sued for worker’s compensation to cover injuries received on the job?
6. How could you not know you employ undocumented workers when court records in that case against you show your mansion employed individuals “without work authorization” who were not consistently vetted with federal I-9 forms to verify employment eligibility?
7. Although you have made many political donations and claim to be on the “Trump train”, why are you unable to identify a single donation to President Trump or any MAGA candidate while they were running for office?
8. How can you claim to be Trump’s favorite governor when records show you donated over a million dollars to Jeb Bush and Nikki Haley when they ran for President against Trump?
9. How can you claim to be Trump’s favorite governor when you donated to Liz Cheney and Bill Cassidy after they voted to impeach President Trump when he was not even in office?
10. If you are a Republican, why have you spent $100 million attacking a fellow Republican while you and your wife donated at least $3,000 to Jon Ossoff and Stacy Abrams?
11. If you are not behind the dark money group called “Georgians for Integrity” why was it registered by the same Ohio lawyer, Kimberly Land, who registered Alabama Patients First which ran negative dark money attack ads that supported your Jackson Hospital?
12. Since Jackson family members and subsidiaries previously donated over $72,000 to Democratic Party Gubernatorial candidate Geoff Duncan, why shouldn’t we believe you were also behind dark money organizations helping Duncan become Lieutenant Governor in 2018?
We ask these questions because, unlike candidate Burt Jones and Keisha Lance Bottoms who are running on their elective records, you have no record and there are numerous discrepancies in the information disseminated by you and your campaign.
