The Davis People Plan To Go Out In A Blaze Of Glory

Rep. David Davis continues to fight the results of his First Congressional District defeat asserting that outside influences conspired to defeat him despite indications from the party higher ups that this needs to end:

“The evidence obtained to date illustrates that there was a systematic effort by both known and unknown persons to influence the Republican primary election for Congress in the First Congressional District. While our detailed data analysis is not yet complete because voter data will not be available until Thursday afternoon, an initial review of the information provided by witnesses and anecdotal evidence shows that many voters who have never voted in the Republican Primary chose a Republican ballot this time,” said Congressman David Davis. “Similarly, many voters who had a history of voting to choose the nominee of the Democrat Primary chose a Republican ballot this time and many of these were in areas in which Dr. Roe saw heavy support. Because of this evidence, we are considering challenging the results of the recent primary through the process allowed under state law,” he added.
