#TeamBerbrick Leads On Leadership |
Writing from our office headquarters, we are officially 13 days from this historic primary. That is it, 13 days. Yesterday, Walter Berbrick was a featured guest on the Dan Yorke Show before taking the debate stage to call out our opponent on a ridiculous press conference they led. With no data, creating the illusion this is a two person race, our opponent brought in a former candidate who dropped out and alluded other candidates in this field should consider dropping out and endorsing the insider 'leading' candidate. Walter Berbrick quickly responded pointing out the lack of leadership and judgement, "this is an insider, supporting an insider, in an election designed to support insiders." Reflecting on the press conference, Berbrick was the only candidate to point out: - This is still a wide open race and there is no independent polling to suggest otherwise.
- It is a question of leadership and judgement and if there were any facts, they should have reached out directly for a conversation and made their case, not grandstanding at a press conference.
Other great news coming out of HQ , #TeamBerbrick purchased our first social media ads which will be present with targeted voters until election day! This follows up thousands of mailers going out to voters on top of great local media coverage.
As part of #TeamBerbrick, what can you give to get Walter Berbrick to Congress? Literally 6 hours before the end of August can help us get over the finish line and victory on September 5th. This weekend we will be in Jamestown, East Providence and if you would rather be in your own neighborhood we can set that up too!
It is easy to drop flyers with a list and sharing why you support Walter Berbrick and making phone calls from anywhere in the U.S. from the comfort of home. What will you do to get Walter Berbrick to Congress? Email Kate [email protected] or call/text 401-447-0346.
Take a look at the highlights from the road and how Berbrick is outshining the competition:

| Berbrick Most Qualified & Impressive |
This week, Walter Berbrick was featured across multiple media platforms and when commentators and reporters see how much #leadership and #experience Walter Berbrick will bring to Washington, we get quotations such as this from Robert Whitcomb,
"... He’s an expert on global warming, including its national-security and economic challenges. The Ocean State, of course, must deal with the challenges of rising seas associated with climate change. Beyond that increasingly important expertise, Dr. Berbrick has shown himself to be a very civic-minded citizen in a range of nonprofit activities, and has a salt-of-the-earth background that helps him connect with a very wide range of people." |
