I'm running for Governor as an Independent. No party labels. No political insiders. No special deals.

Overheard at a campaign event: [question] How are you different from the other candidates? [Me] Well...its hard to know where to start. There is a height difference.

The Audubon Society held its gubernatorial forum today, and I was the only candidate who showed up. Both Foulkes and Guckian blew it off.

Next week, Foulkes will be in Boston for a joint fundraiser with a gubernatorial candidate from Maine. Today, she's raising money at the exclusive Aurora Club alongside members of the General Assembly. Two days ago, she raised $30,000 in a single fundraising event at a swanky restaurant in Providence.

In her TV ads, Foulkes describes herself as an "outsider." Does she sound like an outsider to you?

Foulkes thinks that money can convince Rhode Island voters to accept another four years of the status quo. Let’s prove her wrong. Let’s show her that the office of Governor of Rhode Island is not for sale.

#BREAKING: New Rhode Island poll shows Helena Foulkes leading the gubernatorial race with 44%, followed by Ken Block at 35%, according to Emerson College.

[𝕂𝕖𝕟 𝔹𝕝𝕠𝕔𝕜 @KenBlockRI]

Big news! A new WPRI/Emerson poll shows that I am just nine points behind Helena Foulkes in the race for Governor (Foulkes 44%, Block 35%, Guckian 10%).

We are very encouraged by this poll. In just one week, we’ve cut Helena’s lead in half. Our campaign has all the momentum as we enter the final stretch of this race.

Rhode Islanders are realizing that Helena represents the political status quo and I am the only candidate who can defeat her. Voters don’t want another member of the political establishment, backed by special interests and out-of-state money, to serve as our next Governor. They’re looking for something different. They’re looking for someone to govern without ideology. They want common sense.

We expect that Helena and her allies will start spending enormous amounts of money to attack me. Bring it on. Rhode Islanders will see through it. They know that the office of Governor of Rhode Island is not for sale.

I will work every waking moment of every day to earn the support of the people of Rhode Island.

NEW WPRI/EMERSON POLL: @HelenaBFoulkes still the frontrunner for gov, but @KenBlockRI gaining

Foulkes 44%
Block 35%
Guckian 10%

Plus - "an absolute tossup" between @LoughlinRI1 @LGSabinaMatos in the race for lieutenant governor

Loughlin 45%

The Foulkes campaign is worried about me. In addition to the Democratic Governors Association committing $500k to her race, the Laborers' Union has announced another $500k in support of Foulkes.

If you have already forgotten, the Laborers' Union provided substantial assistance to Gina Raimondo's campaigns, and she hired Peter Alviti to thank them for their generosity.

I wonder what the Laborers will ask Foulkes to do.

Foulkes is running the most insider Democratic gubernatorial campaign, hoovering up money from every insider and special interest. She is no different from the other Democrats who came before.

Money can't buy her love.

Vote differently.

Vote Block.

It's my birthday today. My message to you is:

Parties do not solve problems. They never have, and they never will. Ideology does not solve problems. It never has, and it never will.

Only people solve problems. Only someone who can think, reason, convince, cajole, and communicate can drive major change within government organizations.

Fewer and fewer people still vote by party here in RI because the bridge broke our politics.

Use your brain. I played a major role in eliminating the Master Lever, a ballot mechanism that let voters vote for a party.

Stop voting like the Master Lever still makes any sense.
