We the People Convention Endorses
Mike Gibbons for U.S. Senate

 
 Akron, OH: Today, Tom Zawistowski, President of the We the People Convention (WTPC), announced that his organization is endorsing Cleveland businessman Mike Gibbons for U.S. Senate in the Republican Primary Election. The Ohio Republican Primary will be held on Tuesday, May 3rd with Early Voting now available.
 
In making the announcement, Zawistowski said, “The We the People Convention is proud to endorse Mike Gibbons for US Senate in the Republican Primary Election as we did in 2018. Mike is with us on all the conservative issues. He is Pro-Family, Pro-Life, Pro-Jobs, Pro-Business, Pro-Parents Rights, Pro-Gun, Pro-Free Speech, Pro-Religious Freedom, Pro-Trump, Pro-MAGA and Anti-Illegal Immigration, Anti-CRT, Anti-Big Government, Anti-Government Mandates, Anti-Deficit Spending, and Anti-Socialism. Importantly, In our opinion, Mike Gibbons is the only conservative candidate who has the financial resources necessary to win not only the Primary but the General Election in November. Like Trump, he cannot be bought by special interests which we rarely see in a conservative candidate. That means, like Trump, if elected, his votes in the Senate will not be swayed by special interest because he only answers to we the voters of Ohio. No small thing.”
 
Zawistowski continued, “When he wasn’t running for anything, Mike Gibbons did not disappear like so many politicians. He stayed with us in 2019 and 2020 and did his part in helping us win Ohio again for President Trump. That tells us a lot about the man and how he feels about our country and our movements efforts to defend individual freedom, liberty and prosperity. Finally, Term limits. Gibbons says he only wants to serve one or two terms. That’s laudable. Lots of politicians say that and then don’t. Mike Gibbons is 66 years old, so he is not going to be in Washington for a long time and yes that is actually important to us. We have no interest in electing any more people to the Senate who will be there for 30 years. Mike Gibbons is conservative, he is competent, he has the demeanor necessary to be an effective Senator, and he will support President Trump and the Make America Great Again agenda.” 
 
Zawistowski concluded, “Based on these reasons, we are confident that we have endorsed the best conservative candidate who can win in the US Senate race and that is Mike Gibbons. I personally ask all of our members, and all real Republicans and Trump supporters in Ohio, to not only get out and vote for Mike Gibbons, but to put up signs and volunteer to help his campaign.

OHIO TEA PARTY CELEBRATES ELECTION WINS

Akron, OH: Tonight, Tom Zawistowski, President of the TEA Party affiliated We the People Convention, commented on how the Ohio TEA Party movement views the 2018 Ohio General Election Results. Zawistowski said, “I want to congratulate all the grassroots volunteer for doing such a terrific job this election. It is their investment of time and effort that made the majority of these wins possible. We also thank all the candidates we endorsed, on our www.OhioESlateCard.com, who worked so hard to win their individual races. As predicted, there was no sign of a “Blue Wave" in Ohio, as Republicans dominated in all the state races, all the US House races, in the Ohio House and the Ohio Senate. Even the US Senate race was within reach, as our polling suggested, but we just could not quite make up for all of the $20 million spending gap with our outstanding effort. The bottom line is that we met two of our three main goals for this election - we defended all 12 Ohio Republican Congressional seats and we protected the integrity of voting in Ohio by electing Frank LaRose as Secretary of State. We were also glad that State Issue 1 was soundly defeated. We had a very good night and we are celebrating.”  

Zawistowski concluded, “At the national level, we are pleased that it looks like Republicans will increase their hold on the US Senate. This certainly bodes well for what we hope will be at least one more Supreme Court nominee. While we are holding out hope that the Republican’s can keep control of the US House, it looks doubtful that can happen which is certainly a disappointment to us and a real tragedy for our nation.”
