Washington, D.C. – Fake Independent Evan McMullin has been playing a phony game attempting to fool voters into believing he wouldn’t be a reliable vote for Chuck Schumer and Joe Biden. 

McMullin has been cozying up to Democrats throughout his campaign, even receiving the support from Utah Democrats.

According to Fox News“Utah Senate candidate Evan McMullin has paid over $1.6 million to Democratic firms and uses the Democratic fundraising platform ActBlue, despite running as an independent to unseat Republican Sen. Mike Lee.

McMullin, who unsuccessfully ran for president as an independent in 2016, has also neglected to pay back over $600,000 in debts incurred during his failed campaign.

Republicans have accused the Democratic Party of trying to deceive voters in Utah by supporting McMullin, who has repeatedly said he is the “Independent” voice and left the GOP in 2016, instead of supporting an explicit Democrat.”

The latest: raising money from Democrat Senator and former DSCC Chair Jon Tester.

Statement from NRSC Spokeswoman Priscilla Ivasco: “Evan McMullin is a Democrat who is trying to deceive voters into think he’s an independent. He’s nothing but a Democrat looking to head to Washington and be a rubber stamp for Joe Biden and Chuck Schumer’s failing agenda. McMullin is not what Utah families want or need representing them in D.C. They know the Senator they have now is the Senator they need. Senator Mike Lee fights for Utah families and to protect the values that make Utah great.”
