Statement From Kelda Roys’ Campaign
Statement from Jalen Knuteson, spokesperson for Kelda Roys:
“The public is getting far too familiar with hearing Sara Rodriguez apologize. One year ago, Rodriguez launched her campaign claiming Gov. Evers gave her a special heads-up that he was not running for re-election. We soon learned from Gov. Evers that her claim was false. In the past year, we have repeatedly seen Rodriguez make unforced errors and then ask to be celebrated for apologizing:
- saying she’d make local law enforcement carry out ICE’s administrative warrants
- stating she’d write the state budget “behind a curtain”
- taking corporate PAC money from WE Energies after voting for a GOP-authored tax break for them and defending herself by saying Evers signed the bill when he actually vetoed it.
“This recurring pattern shows that Rodriguez is unprepared for the rigors of a general election or governing.”
