I’m writing to demand an apology from Mark Batinick for his personal attacks on Moira Dunn where he portrays her as a bobble-head toy.

Moira is a stroke and brain tumor survivor, and in his ad Batinick puts a ‘claw’ around her head. Moira has overcome some serious obstacles, and then she became a criminal prosecutor, devoting her life to protecting our community. Whether you’re a Democrat or Republican, Batinick has crossed a line. His ad is offensive and deeply troubling.
I am asking other voters of this district to join me, and tell Batinick that we deserve better than his type of dirty politics.
