Everything came down to “kitchen-table issues,” Rep.-elect Rob Bresnahan, R-Pa., told Newsmax, saying his campaign did a lot of traveling and door-knocking this cycle.
“Listen, we knocked over 50,000 doors as a campaign, we drove, we put over 50,000 miles on the pickup truck, and for 13 months, in three days, we left absolutely nothing on the field,” Bresnahan told “National Report.” “But we ran a campaign off of three simple ideas: it’s an economy that works, it’s borders that are secure, and it’s communities that are safe. And every part of our campaign boiled back down to the kitchen-table issues.
“It’s talking about the utilities, it’s talking about groceries,” he continued. “I met somebody at the polls who said, ‘You can never forget about us. I’m 68 years old. I worked my entire life and I had to go get another job at Walmart being a cashier because I can’t afford my trailer, I can’t afford the insurance,’ and that’s what we ran about. I mean, it was common sense, pragmatic ideas, and I’m hopeful that our message really resonated.”
