(In sprint to the finish, GOP challenger Paul Nehlen says local party officials are censoring his campaign)

With an uphill primary race against House Speaker Paul Ryan in its final stretch, challenger Paul Nehlen is calling out the local GOP Establishment for trying to build a firewall to protect the incumbent.

Party officials are nominally neutral in primaries, but Nehlen said the Wisconsin GOP has been anything but. The Nehlen campaign reports getting rebuffed in efforts to put signs and campaign materials in county GOP offices and having a presence at party events. He said pro-Nehlen comments have been removed from Republican Party Facebook pages.

“It’s ridiculous, because people are going to these party tents, to these Republican victory offices, and my materials aren’t there,” Nehlen told LifeZette. The onetime Ryan supporter said the speaker has betrayed his southeastern Wisconsin district on issues like immigration and trade. “The system is rigged against grassroots interests trying to get in.”

Ryan will work with Obama to get the Dems to come out and vote for him in the primary. Need to get the Nehlen voters to turn out.

If Ryan wins, we should not support him in the general election.

Facebook and Twitter are liberal biased and censor conservative thought.

...

I read Trump’s posts on Twitter. I don’t bother to read the comments on his posts.

They did the Commonwealth proud. I doubt the 2nd would have gone and been so downright uppity a few weeks back if the 7th hadn’t gone and done it first.
