Closing statement

Please take three minutes to watch my closing statement, courtesy of KTVU Channel 2. (You’ll need to endure a 15-second ad before my segment starts.) In it, I explain what’s at stake in this election, and why it matters so much.

If you like what you hear — and I’m confident that you will — then forward a link to everyone who shares your views and values, and invite them to join you in contributing to this campaign. There’s no better opportunity to change the composition of Congress.

I’m counting on you to help me campaign in crescendo and keep our momentum building all the way through the closing of the polls at 8:00 p.m. Pacific time Tuesday. On to victory!

Yours truly,

David Harmer

P.S. Here’s an excerpt from the transcript:

Congress keeps borrowing money we don’t have, to spend on programs we can’t afford, and then acting like they did us a favor. It’s resulted in a mammoth national debt that is stifling the economy and threatening our children.

The average American child, over his or her working life, will have to pay a quarter-million dollars in taxes as their share of interest on the national debt. A quarter-million dollars! That’s intergenerational theft. It’s fiscal child abuse. I’m running to change it.

As your representative, I’ll fight to control federal spending and lift the regulatory burdens that impede job creation. I’ll work to stop growing the government, and start growing the economy. And I’ll oppose every attempt to raise taxes.

It’s much more compelling in audio/video! Watch it here, then spread the word.

David Harmer is the Republican nominee for the U.S. House of Representatives from California’s 11th District. His father, John Harmer, served as Lieutenant Governor under Ronald Reagan. Early in his career, David took his expertise in constitutional law to Pacific Legal Foundation, where he defended property rights and other freedoms. David was also a Resident Fellow at the Heritage Foundation, and his book on education reform was published by the Cato Institute.

The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) has named David a “Young Gun”—the top status in their candidate rating system. This top-target designation assures that the 11th District will be a national congressional battleground.
