Jeff Sax is playing dirty politics

I’m extremely disappointed to see the direction the Jeff Sax campaign is heading by spreading misinformation about Rep. John Lovick in a desperate attempt to try and get traction for his own campaign.

The alleged victim has stated that nothing happened, but the effort to dredge up old news that was investigated decades ago and intimate there was more to the story is harming and hurting people involved today.

Mr. Sax is not doing the public service he claims. He’s simply playing dirty politics. I think we need to send him a message on election day that we aren’t interested in electing those who think this type of campaigning is proper. If he can’t win on the issues, then what else has he got besides smearing his opponent?

John Lovick is a good and honorable man who represents us well in Olympia and I’m pleased to say he has my vote.
