It is beyond me how people like Jim Jordan continue to get elected, though I think I have a pretty good idea:

This is how Republicans stay in office—gerrymandering. The population makeup of his redrawn district is 85% White. Jim Jordan is usung the time he should be spending listening to your needs to harass Georgia District Attorney Fani Willis. He is using his position in government to threaten and intimidate her for doing her job—holding people accountable for crimes they commit in Georgia.

People of District 4 in Ohio: What are you doing? Why do you continue to send Jordan to D.C. to work for you and better your lives when he does nothing for you?

Perhaps you’ve forgotten the job of our Representatives, but don’t feel bad, because we’ve all forgotten to some degree. Congress rarely does anything to benefit American citizens. They do what their donors want. Period.

Jim Jordan, Insurrectionist

Jim Jordan played a major role in the insurrection on January 6th, 2021. Following GOP logic, that makes him a traitor. He wastes our time and tax dollars holding sham hearings about the “weaponization of government” for one reason: To please Donald Trump.

I will never understand why all of these Republican men piss themselves and drop to their knees whenever Trump is present. They are willing to attack the judicial system, a separate but equal branch of government. They care more about what Donald Trump thinks of them than they do about saving democracy.

Jim Jordan District Stats

Jim Jordan’s ditrict has a high crime rate and a high poverty rate, yet he never proposes legislation to change anything. In fact, Jim Jordan was sent to Congress in 2006. Since he has been there, he passed 0 pieces of legislation.

Why is that? Perhaps he knows the way his district is gerrymandered all but guarantees his win in elections, so why work for votes? The poverty rate in District 4 is 10.4% which is about 80% of the National rate (12.4%).

The crime rate in Jim Jordan’s district is worse than New York City.

“With a crime rate of 37 per 1,000 residents, Mansfield Ohio has one of the highest crime rates in America compared to all communities of all sizes — from the smallest towns to the very largest cities.” CrimeGrade.org listed the  New York City area as a D+ — but Mansfield a D.”

District 4 of Ohio, I am reaching out to you to ask: Will you please vote him out this November? Elect someone that will work to make your lives and your district better.

Stop settling for someone who couldn’t care less if your lives are improas, as long as he can continue to sit in that precious seat — which belongs to you — and collect checks from the donors and lobbyists.

VOTE. HIM. OUT.
