Cruz Campaign Under Fire for Controversial Mailer


Ted Cruz
Jae C. Hong—APTed Cruz listens to a question from the crowd at a campaign event in Ottumwa, IA on Jan. 26, 2016.

Ted Cruz’s campaign is under fire for a mailer it sent out in Iowa that is designed to look like an official government document.
The mailers tell the recipients they have a “voting violation” for failing to caucus in previous elections, and grades them on an A to F basis, Politico reports. The paper has the words “official public record at the top,” and also includes actual names of the recipients neighbors.
Republican Secretary of State Paul Pate slammed the campaign, saying the mailer “misrepresents the role of my office, and worse, misrepresents Iowa election law.”
