New Campaign Report Reveals “The Big Selloutski” has Struck Again

Billboard 14x48 Big Sellout

(Team Hof) – One of the more stunning differences in Nevada Assembly District 36 race this year is how each candidate is funding their campaign.

Challenger Dennis Hof is pretty much self-funding his entire race, while incumbent Assemblyman James Oscarson continues to live off the blood money of special interests.

As the Parhump Valley Times reported on October 21, “Oscarson pulled in $88,500 in contributions from 71 donors” compared to Hof, “who drew in $50,106,” with $50,000 of it coming from himself.

Oscarson claimed, presumably with a straight face, that his haul “says that people support me.”

Yeah, right.

The fact is there are almost no “people” from Assembly District 36 supporting him with their campaign cash. Most are PACs, big corporations, lobbyists and special interests – especially Big Gaming.

* Just FYI, The Big Selloutski’s largest single donor this period was New Nevada PAC – which is a PAC belonging to Gov. Brian Sandoval, architect of the largest tax hike in Nevada history.

Anyone who doesn’t think that contribution was a huge “thank you” to Oscarson for his bought-and-paid-for vote for that $1.4 BILLION tax hike is in some serious denial.

If Assemblyman Oscarson’s vote on a tax hike can be bought for $7,500, how little would it cost for him to sell out your gun rights or your water rights or your parental rights?

In this election, there’s a clear choice: Re-elect a man who can be bought for 30 pieces of silver…or elect Dennis Hof, “The Man Who Couldn’t Be Bought.”
