I just sent out a Media Advisory

Jim Marter for Congress will be at the historic Lincoln Douglas Debate Site in Ottawa, this Saturday at 1pm.

Lauren Underwood was last seen in Arizona this week, campaigning for someone else!

You can't make this up!

Months ago, I challenged opponent Lauren Underwood to a series of seven debates, one for each county in the district, starting at this historic site. She failed to arrange for even one, in-person debate, open to the public, this entire election. You deserve better!

Ms. Underwood would only agree to:

• Virtual candidate "forums" (And she had off-camera staff helping her!)
• And in-person meetings in which the public was NOT invited!

Does that sound like representation to you?

In 2018 she criticized her opponent for not debating her and in the end, that debate happened. She said:

"My opponent failed to show up for his constituents once again tonight...The most basic responsibility of a representative is to show up for their community. I’m disappointed that my opponent does not take this duty seriously. We deserve better."

Indeed we do Ms. Underwood!

On Saturday, I'll bring HER an empty chair.

I'll be with voters and the local press on Saturday, discussing issues and hearing people's concerns. I hope you'll join me in this beautiful, historical setting.

Beautiful and historic Washington Square, the site of the first Lincoln Douglas Debate in 1858, located in Ottawa, 101 East Lafayete Street in the heart of the 14th District. 1 pm.
