Club For Growth PAC Endorses Eric Brakey (ME-02) for U.S. House of Representatives

Club for Growth PAC announced the endorsement of Eric Brakey for the Republican Nomination for Maine’s 2nd Congressional District, and Club for Growth PAC President David McIntosh issued the following statement.

“Eric Brakey has beaten an incumbent Democrat in the past and we think he’s the candidate to take on Jared Golden, a radical liberal who has voted with full-blown Socialist Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez even more often than leftist Speaker Pelosi,” said McIntosh. “Golden is not a good fit for a district that President Trump won by ten points, and Brakey, a pro-growth, liberty-minded conservative, is the candidate to take on Golden and win.”

According to an analysis conducted by Club for Growth, Rep. Golden voted with Speaker Pelosi 82.14% of the time and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez 86.18%.

Club for Growth PACs support principled, pro-growth conservatives in key elections across the country. In 2018, Club for Growth PACs won 14 of 17 races on Election Day while maintaining 8.9% overhead.
