Vote for Burner so Koster will be elected

Ms. Burner is an unrepentant socialist. She hates corporations and wants to sue them.

She is supported by George Soros and other socialist groups.

Her method of operation is hysterical screaming. She thinks women should be proud of abortions.

Please vote for her in the primary, so that Mr. Koster will be elected.
