So even in the primary, the Republicans started to put money towards my Democratic opponent. They did not want to see me coming. And I'll tell you why. Number one, because I deliver. But number two, I delivered two defeats to [Republicans] in 2016 and 2018. I beat the Republican candidate for the state House district, who is now the Republican incumbent in CD5. I beat Lori Chavez Derimer not once but twice. (15:41–15:45)
