RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
Sharpton: “Clearly, voting rights is a big issue with all of us and the fact that there is some voting changes in some of the state laws is of concern. But also, I take note to have the front runner and the Republican Party found by a court to be guilty of fraud and heaven to spend a half billion dollars when you head up the interest is something I can take into consideration, whether they are lawyers or not. But back to Congress, where you serve. And the Senate which you are running for. As Trump’s primary lead has widened, his grip on Republicans and Congress has tightened. And he’s openly bragged he killed the bipartisan border deal in both chambers this month. You represent our state with the longest southern border.

Do I intakes instant what a senator like that. We want a senator who do what’s best for us.”
