Couldn’t get Chris Smith to show his face in public yet again, eh?

Michael Aaron is the only one on the list worth listening to.
It is important that the moderator ask all candidates to clearly state their position on the flood of dark money in our political system and if they are or are not accepting corporate and/or PAC money.
