Bloomberg Doesn't Have the Right to Buy This Election - NV Town Hall

Feb 18, 2020

We pride ourselves on being the longest standing democracy in the world. To me that means one person, one vote. Mr. Bloomberg has every right to run for president. I don’t think he has the right to buy this election.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided

At least Mike is American. In a post Citizens United world, the only people who can win are those who take corporate money. Or those who have their own corporate money.
