VIRGINIA BEACH, Oct. 26, 2011 /Standard Newswire/ -- E. W. Jackson, candidate for U.S. Senate in Virginia won an overwhelming victory after a 3 hour debate in the Virginia U.S. Senate race. Two candidates declined to show. Jackson believes it is because they do not want to face the voters and the comparison with him. "All the other candidates are essentially saying the same thing. My message is different and it's resonating with voters. In fact, the other candidates are starting to mimic me. The two candidates who refused to show up are afraid to appear on the same stage with me. They should show respect for the voters, instead playing political hide-and-seek."
Since this was a Tea Party event and another candidate has tried to claim the mantle of the Tea Party, Jackson says this shows that he has overwhelming support from Tea Party activists. The two candidates who failed to appear, one of whom claims to represent the Tea Party, received only 1% each of the vote. "How can you claim to be a Tea Party candidate and not show up to a Tea Party debate," asks Jackson. "Whether present or absent, when you receive only 1% of the vote, it shows you do not have the Tea Party support you claim. I will debate any candidate, anytime, anywhere." All other candidates except one received votes in the single digits.
Jackson has compared himself to Herman Cain. "People are looking for candidates who understand and express their frustration as well as their aspirations for our country. But they have to know that a candidate is authentic and has the conviction and courage to do what he says, and not succumb to the seduction of Washington. That's why Herman Cain is winning, and that is why I believe I will win the Republican nomination for U.S. Senate in Virginia and go on to beat the Democrat nominee in the general election."
E.W. Jackson is running for the U.S. Senate to reverse Obama's policies and restore American values, pride and prosperity. A Marine Corps Veteran of the Viet Nam Era, Jackson graduated from U. of Mass. Summa Cum Laude and from Harvard Law School. He practiced and taught business law, and ran his own small business for 10 years. He is now a minister.
