NY-26 candidate Davis ‘hits’ a Republican volunteer
– 1 hr 8 mins ago

The Erie County Republican Party released a video Wednesday night that appears to show Jack Davis, a candidate running for congress in the special election in western New York, hitting a man identified as a Republican volunteer. Davis is an independent candidate running on the ‘Tea Party’ line.

In the 15-second clip, the volunteer, who seems to be holding a camera and filming the incident repeatedly asks Davis, “Why did you back out of the debate?” referring to the candidates debate held Thursday morning, which Davis announced he would not participate in.

Davis asks the man, “You want punched out?” and pushes the camera.

In response, the man yelps loudly, and stumbles dramatically, despite the fact that it doesn’t look like Davis has hit him. Davis walks away, laughing. A man with Davis goes up to the man and either hits him or the camera – whatever he does is not caught on the camera but the volunteer yells “ow.”

Why is it one immediately mistrusts Republicon 'news?"

Could it be that so often in the past (and present) Republicons have lied to the American people? One does not wish to be SUCKERED yet again by the Republicon propaganda catapults.

The prudent citizen will want to wait to see how 'true' this particular 'news' may turn out to be...

8. True or not, I'm sorry this is making the rounds. I would like both Republicans
to keep dividing the vote. For that to happen, Republican Davis has to remain viable.
