The "Two Faces" of Jake Johnson
There’s the Jake Johnson who campaigns in our district, and there’s the Jake Johnson who votes in Raleigh and lives in Charlotte.
While Jake Johnson talks about conservative values on the campaign trail, his voting record tells a different story. In Raleigh, Jake has been criticized for:
-
Opposing Senior Tax Relief: When given the chance to support property tax relief for our seniors, Jake Johnson turned his back on them, claiming it would "shift the burden"—the same excuse career politicians always use to avoid cutting taxes.
-
Special Interest Influence: A look at the campaign finance reports shows a trail leading directly to Raleigh special interests, from alcohol lobbyists to utility giants.
We don't need a representative who listens to Raleigh insiders; we need one who listens to us.
Mike Hager: The Proven Conservative Alternative
Mike Hager doesn't have two records. Whether he was serving as House Majority Leader or running his engineering firm, Mike has remained consistent.
Why Mike Hager is Different:
-
He’s Been There and Won: As a former House Majority Leader, Mike knows how to navigate the legislative process to actually pass conservative legislation, not just file bills that go nowhere.
-
He’s Not for Sale: Having built his own successful business, Mike isn't beholden to special interest donors. His only priority is the people of this district.
-
The Homestead Exemption Champion: Unlike his opponent, Mike is 100% committed to delivering real property tax relief to North Carolina seniors.
The Verdict
Voters deserve a representative whose record matches their rhetoric. Mike Hager is a proven conservative who has already shown he has the backbone to stand up for our values.
