Kip Averitt Should Switch Parties


At least Grand Prairie state Rep. Kirk England was honest: he was elected as a Republican but had voting records like a Democrat. And recently, he made the party change.

Perhaps the reason the Democrats didn’t run anyone against our very own Sen. Kip Averitt, R-McGregor, last year was because he votes like a Democrat.

If Sen. Averitt were honest, he would immediately switch parties from Republican to Democrat. He’s a disgrace to his Republican Party platform (Full Disclosure: I'm a Libertarian.) For too long we’ve had candidates feel the need to defecate on the principles and values that their Republican Party is known for.

Historically, Averitt’s voting records on conservative report cards haven’t gone above 45% — that is uncalled for, and people in District 22 did not send Averitt to Austin to vote like a Democrat.


Since I'm a Libertarian, I'm extremely fiscally conservative. Averitt couldn't be fiscally conservative if he was running a lemonade stand. His expansions of CHIP funding are typical George W. Bush Liberalism.
