James O’Keefe’s Project Veritas released a new undercover video on Tuesday night showing vulnerable Sen. Heidi Heitkamp’s (D-ND) campaign staff exposing her as being a far-left candidate while she has tried to portray herself as being centrist, saying, “when she gets elected she’s going to be super liberal.”
Jesse Overton, Hietkamp’s Digital Director, described a bait and switch type of campaigning that Heitkamp is imploring, saying, “It’s an election year for her. She’s being careful about pissing people off, and it’s funny, she said basically like, after the election, if and when she gets re-elected, she’s going to be super liberal.”
When one of Project Veritas’ undercover journalists visited Heitkamp’s Fargo, North Dakota campaign office, staffers admitted they take down posters of former President Barack Obama when the media is present because they want Heitkamp to appear as more moderate than she really is.
Another staffer who works for Heitkamp’s Senate office, Prescott Robinson, said that if she wins by a large enough margin, then she will start being more progressive, adding that if other Democrats around the country started moving further left that “she would move to the left.”
