The SCOTUS ⏰ is ticking…
Happy Friday everyone—
0 for 11: more politics at its worst
ICYMI: “stronger than ever and ready for victory”
Hey everyone—
Whether its opposing tax cuts for the middle class or supporting dangerous sanctuary cities, Heidi Heitkamp and her liberal friends in Washington are demonstrating just how out-of-touch they are with North Dakota’s values. Kevin Cramer, Kelly Armstrong and Republicans up and down the ballot are the right choice to represent this state, and the North Dakota Republican Party is more prepared than ever to deliver that message.
Chairman Rick Berg penned an op-ed detailing the unprecedented work being done to ensure the Republican message is effectively articulated and delivered to voters. Thanks to the NDGOP, North Dakota Republicans are better positioned for victory than ever before.
In case you missed it…
The NDGOP Is Stronger Than Ever
Chairman Rick Berg
9.13.18
The eyes of the nation are on North Dakota as we approach this November’s general election. Campaigns for our critically important Senate seat, open House seat, and several statewide elected offices have all drawn the interest of voters, advocacy groups, and political pundits from across the country. Most importantly, these races and the 23 legislative districts on the ballot in November will have a sizeable impact on the future of our state – which is why the North Dakota Republican Party has taken unprecedented steps to expand and enhance its infrastructure.
Our collective success is not artificial: it is the result of a purposeful choice by North Dakota voters who want a party that supports them. The efforts of our volunteer base and Republicans everywhere will be the reason for our electoral success in November.
Taking our message straight to the front door, NDGOP volunteer teams have already knocked over 100,000 doors and made over 150,000 phone calls. To make this happen, our teams have held over 1,000 one-on-one meetings with other volunteers and have activated and trained hundreds more in every corner of the state. Every day, these teams are continuing to talk to more voters than ever before in our party’s history. The momentum is certainly on our side.
Additionally, we have established a strong communications department tasked with advancing our candidates’ winning message while directly engaging with voters through new mediums. Our communications team is uniquely positioned to successfully promote our candidates and issues.
The message being crafted by our communications team and delivered directly to voters by our incredible field team is a winning message for North Dakota. Our focus on economic success, regulatory relief, affordable health care, respect for the rule of law, and an all-the-above energy approach is what North Dakotans want from their elected officials.
This is why the North Dakota Republican Party is well equipped to deliver results in November and put forward an agenda the people support – but it is all for naught if we fail to activate our grassroot Republicans. With the infrastructure now in place, we need even more Republicans from all across the state to step in and join our efforts – you can get started at ndgop.org.
Please join the ranks of hundreds of volunteers who are already in place so together we can ensure the NDGOP is stronger than ever and ready for victory on election day.

NDGOP Statement on Secretary of State Debate
Hillary and Chuck to Heitkamp’s Rescue
It turns out Hillary Clinton knows how to do more with a computer than just delete emails.
This new round of attacks are unlikely to be successful, as their misleading ads on Kevin Cramer have been consistently discredited. As local outlet Valley News Live reported, “Senate Majority PAC has a history of playing fast and loose with the truth.”

Heitkamp still pretending to review Kavanaugh’s exceptional record
Judge Brett Kavanaugh is many days removed from his confirmation hearing, but Heidi Heitkamp is continuing to follow Chuck Schumer’s orders to stay neutral as long as possible on his nomination to the Supreme Court:
Even as she concedes Judge Kavanaugh said nothing disqualifying in his hearing, and has the qualifications to be appointed to the Supreme Court, Heidi Heitkamp is stalling until Chuck Schumer gives her permission to make a decision.
Meanwhile, Heitkamp has still refused to condemn her Democrat colleagues’ obstructionist efforts to disrupt and protest Kavanaugh’s hearings. The people of North Dakota deserve to know why Heidi Heitkamp is apparently okay with her party’s inappropriate behavior.
“Heidi Heitkamp is dragging her feet on supporting Brett Kavanaugh because Chuck Schumer told her to,” said North Dakota Republican Party Communications Director Jake Wilkins. “Heitkamp needs to follow the will of North Dakotans by supporting Judge Kavanaugh and condemning her colleagues’ extremist tactics.”

the empty seat
It’s not your seat, Heidi
President Trump told a crowd of North Dakotans today that Heidi Heitkamp is out-of-touch with North Dakota’s values, and now she seems determined to prove him right.
Just hours after the President’s fundraising event in North Dakota, Heidi Heitkamp sent out a tone deaf email, claiming this Senate seat belongs to her:
NEWSFLASH– This Senate seat doesn’t belong to Heidi Heitkamp; it belongs to the people of North Dakota. And given that 90% of the $1 million President Trump’s event raised came from North Dakotans, it looks like they want it back.
###
Unavoidable
President Trump is in North Dakota today in support of Kevin Cramer’s Senate bid, and given Heidi Heitkamp’s abysmal record and support for Hillary Clinton, she really wants to change the subject.
President Trump, who won the state by 36 points, stands for growing our economy, combating illegal immigration, repealing harmful regulations and ending late-term abortion. While Heitkamp will spend the day offering cheap gimmicks to distract voters, the President’s visit serves as an unavoidable reminder that Heidi Heitkamp has stood in firm opposition to all he’s accomplished.
President Trump said it best during his last visit: “You need a senator who doesn’t just talk like they’re from North Dakota, but votes like they’re from North Dakota.”
###
That’s Kevin
President Trump visited North Dakota today to support Kevin Cramer and in his speech he did just that.
North Dakotans voted overwhelmingly for the Trump agenda in 2016, and as the President pointed out, there’s only one candidate for Senate who will advance that agenda and “that’s Kevin Cramer.”
- Border security? “That’s Kevin.”
- Bigger paychecks? “That’s Kevin.”
- Reduced crime? “That’s Kevin.”
- Better health care? “That’s Kevin.”
- Conservative judges? “That’s Kevin.”
- Protect the unborn? “That’s Kevin.”
- Support the Second Amendment? “That’s Kevin.”
In his visit today, President Trump reminded North Dakotans that Heidi Heitkamp stands in firm opposition to the agenda they want and the principles they stand for. With Kevin Cramer, North Dakota voters are ready to elect a Senator that stands for them.
