If anyone can beat a candidate with a R next to their name in our gerrymandered NC-11 congressional district, it's Jamie Ager. Deep roots in WNC, a small businessman well-known throughout WNC, a reluctant politician, he authentically cares about the people of WNC & is a decent, caring human being.

I mean, you could pay $10 to read Ryan Lizza‘s writing about Olivia Nuzzi’s sexcapades with the brainworm guy or you could lick the floor of a bus stop bathroom for free. Either way you’ll end up with the same taste in your mouth.
