Why are you on a one-person campaign to bash Eliot Engel? If you support Bowman, that's fine. Why not say something positive about him instead of a stream of negative posts about Engel, especially with false or incomplete or inaccurate information?

In a few hours now you've posted:

Eliot Engel's hot mic comment, which was incomplete and out of context (I've given you the context).
Eliot Engel hasn't been in his district for months, with nothing to back it up, and it's false.
A "Republican PAC" has given $100,000 to help elect Eliot Engel, even though they haven't spent a penny.

Three false or misleading attacks on Eliot Engel. What's up with that?

No one who wasn't going to be voting for Engel anyway will be swayed by these endorsements nt liskddksil Jun 2020 #26
But some who were undecided or even thinking of Bowman might be swayed.... George II Jun 2020 #28

Ned Lamont didn't run for Senator in 2008, he ran in 2006, the Clintons didn't endorse Lieberman.... George II Jun 2020 #44
You are correct on 2006, but the Clintons DID endorse Lieberman in the primaries karynnj Jun 2020 #45
