"I'm Andrew Janz and I'm Here to Repeal and Replace Devin Nunes"

Protesters gathered in front of Congressman Devin Nunes’ office in Clovis on Thursday, upset about his vote to support the GOP health care plan and critical of his handling of the investigation into Russian election interference.

And, to hear from the first challenger to Nunes in the 2018 midterm election, a 33-year-old Fresno County deputy district attorney making his first run for office.

“I’m Andrew Janz and I’m here to repeal and replace Devin Nunes,” Janz told the crowd of about 80 supporters in the Central Valley town outside of Fresno.

“We’re here today because the congressman cast a vote last week for a bill that is a disaster for the American people … and we are here today because Devin Nunes won’t meet with us,” Janz said.

This is going to be the major talking point for Dem candidates in the midterm.

But Nunes gets the votes of many people that his votes seriously hurt because his name is Hispanic (Portugese). That needs to be stripped away from him and he needs to be laid bare, with his policies and votes the only thing people vote for.

If Janz has been fair in his prosecutions, he need to highlight that, along with him being a better representative all around for the district.

Get the pronunciation of his name wrong tho. They say "noons" when it is "noon-ez". We could play that up to make him sound less Latino. 😜
