The massive political power of Wheel of Fortune. - Rep. Jeff Jackson

I like this guy. A lot.

We need another Jackson to be president. This the one. Our world would be a different (much better) place if all politicians were like Jeff.

and as someone else said, ALWAYS say your name at the beginning!!! "Hi. I'm Jeff Jackson"

I don't know or care which party you represent but we need more like you. Common sense and empathy have left the political theater

Round up people who will knock on doors for free. I've done so with other people.

Make crazy, fun, informative videos that could go viral. An example could be your opponent, sitting on a toilet with orange hair, Trump toilet paper whose reading a newspaper and you talking about his silly bathroom bill. Admit your poking fun, put the copy you want read on the newspaper. Then ZOOM in on your name.

Just an idea! 😊

Good luck in your new postion, after you win, we'll miss you in congress

TWO MILLION DOLLARS?!?!?

Any stats on how many game show watchers are active voters? Or stats by show? Seems reasonable that you'd want ads on the shows with the most voters.

Agree name at beginning but also at end in case viewer missed the beginning - or banner at bottom? Or banner at bottom w web address.

Sometimes I want to move to North Carolina just so you could be one of my representatives. never change.

So the future of the US depends on people who watch dated game shows... It's worse than I thought...

This is the guy.

This guy seems ok, but I generally don’t agree with “reproductive freedom,” particularly if that means abortions for someone and everyone who was too irresponsible to use another method of birth control in the first place. Deleting your baby should be the very last of last resorts, and only if falls under a few strict circumstances. Women also have the right to be a skank, but they should not have the right to multiple abortions because of it.

Funny! I don't know the guy who did the bathroom bill but I do know you!! I remember your campaign for the House before and was so happy when you won. I replied to an email you sent out and asked some important questions, and you answered me, twice!!! That matters a lot and your passion for North Carolina was contagious. You have my support!! I can't afford much but I donate when I can!!

Yes, the ridiculous visibility and monied costs to be a representative today is out of control and is also why most of you are owned now and have been making terrible decisions to sell out We the People to corporate interests since Reagan.

I like you lot Jeff, but it felt like you could've leaned in somehwat on a different direction here.

I wish you were at the DNC. You are exactly the kind of leader we need.

supporting the Tiktok ban was really disappointing and you lost a lot of young people for that

If I lived in North Carolina, you would have won my vote 20 videos ago. I wish more politicians were as candid, honest, and as rational as you are. You deserve the win.

Do all social media short vids. YOU NEED TO GO VIRAL so few watch tv now, but if it’s tv ads say-Name, running for, use background picture as veteran, example I’ll help get govt get your kids rehab help instead of jail. That will hit so many parents. Good luck with whatever you choose, they are all important so do all of the issues separate short videos. Flood all social media, seriously you need to go viral all types of social media especially TickTock, Twitter, Instagram as many free sites as possible. Hire young kids to help make them. Best of luck & thank you for your service 🫡

Go Jeff,go!

Yeah, money is the real talker in this election climate. Best of luck to you, Rep.

Still salty about your nonsense with TikTok.

Thank you for clearing that up. I would vote for you if I were in your state. However, I am in Florida. Best of luck. You sound great.

The irony is...both of WHEEL's hosts emeritus (Sajak and Woolery) are conservatives--Pat considers it part of his private life separate from his public activities, Chuck has gone full frothing MAGA.

Ok, I shared, but Representative Jackson, you need a better younger staff, apparently. You need to be more creative and interactive. That will get you attention, and local news will have to say something. Then you can get more small donations. Just an idea. Keep going!

I would vote for you if I was still in NC 😢 but since I am not I have let my family know they better vote for you. Please keep doing your best keep NC a great inclusive place to live

Seriously, We now have the technology to end the buying of elections in the US. We can replace the billions of dollars ($17 billion in 2020) with under $2 in taxes from each citizen and create the Public Political Channel And Radio System where ALL candidates will have free and equal access to time slots assigned by public daily lottery. If there are 52 candidates, we divide 24 hours by 52 and give each candidate an equal opportunity to state their case.

As each candidate gives their speech, we will run their record across the bottom of the screen, in plain English, so we all can understand what bills they have authored, supported, and voted for.
Because actions speak louder than words.

We ban all paid political ads.
We ban all political donations especially those from special interest groups, corporations, and private citizens. We ban the PACs. With free and equal access to the Public Political Channel System to get their messages out, billions in campaign donations will not be needed. We will save a bundle!

Social sciences have proved that people vote for the most familiar names that they hear over and over. Advertisers know this.
Politicians know this.
Elections are too easy to buy because of this.
Aren’t you sick of hearing their names over and over and being programmed?
Politicians are loyal to their financial backers instead of the American people. We live in a corporate dictatorship where the rich race for donation dollars.
We can make politicians race for our support instead as they use their policies to inspire our votes.
We have had enough spoiled rich kids in office. It’s time for brilliant people without $100,000 to spare to compete in US politics.

Imagine how many kids could be taught to read with $17 billion. We are giving our money to the wrong people.
Please share. Everyone needs to know that there is an alternative to the corrupt system we have now. We can improve!!

How long is the 2 million dollar ad? Are you talking 15 seconds? 30?

💙

I was going to donate $5 but there's not even a link in the show notes, please post a link in the show notes!!!!!

Our family(lifelong republicans living in Mars Hill, NC) will be voting for you, sir. Will try to spread the word.
Decency and common sense. Seems like that's what we all should vote for in every state.

Jeff is getting JACKED. Gets my vote!

Other countries in the civilized world don't allow campaigns to run for Years, only a matter of a few Weeks. Can you believe that?! It solves all kinds of problems.

💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

This Hertford county voter will be voting for you!💙💙💙

From Oklahoma, I appreciate your transparency and pulling back the curtain on politics. Please keep it up! Wish you the best!

Time to remove big money from politics and in still publicly funded elections.

defeat of pat sajak has ushered in a new era with the loss of his power among the showrunners

Best wishes on your upcoming election.

Hoping all the best for you from Illinois! 🇺🇸

You are among our best, because you are clear and concise. The House will miss you! I will try to find you on ActBlue, fixed income but I can manage $5.

This is why downballet voting is important. I'm a Texan bluedot that has convinced two coworkers to vote against Cruz. It's not just the politicians that have to put in the work. Allred is a bit more of a centrist than me, but he is an ally against Abbott and Paxton.

Keep up the good work, bubbas.

@Jeff, two soon to be former colleagues, Adam Shiff and Katie Porter fought for a Senatorial Seat. How do you think that the outcome of that primary will affect the Democratic Party with respect to left vs liberal outcomes? (Left/progressive v liberal on the US scale, liberal/Liberalism as not a given, on the American scale)

🇺🇸🔵 DECENCY AND DEMOCRACY 🇺🇸🔵🤠❤️😺💜 WYOMING 🏞️🏔️🌄🇺🇸🔵💞

Scumbag ! Soft on crime , supports killing unborn baby’s he also voted to allow murderers and rapist to vote ! Total disgrace ! ! !

Visually list everything you want to say even if you don't say it. That visual list can be paused & read and/or screenshotted & shared. Plus, lots of us learn visually and remember what we see more than what we hear. Keep your name on the screen at ALL times.

Thank you for posting this. Godspeed.
