Capps Fires Back at Williams’s Political ‘Attack’ Ads
Charges Fly of ‘Hypocrisy’ and ‘Attacks’
With only 22 days until Election Day, tensions between county incumbent Das Williams and challenger Laura Capps have escalated into an all-out political war.
Anti-Capps mailers and radio messages are flying around the 1st District in response to what Williams’s supporters call a “hypocritic campaign” by Capps. The three consultants behind the anti-Capps crusade — Democrats Mollie Culver and Tyler Gibson, and Republican-turned-no-party-preference Cory Bantilan — have formed a pro-Williams independent expenditure committee.
“I got involved because I am tired of hearing Laura misrepresent the facts about Das and his record,” said Bantilan about his PAC. “One of the behaviors I dislike most is hypocrisy, and her campaign is displaying it on a regular basis.”
