(RANGER, GA) --- Unable to stop his campaign from crumbling Lee Hawkins today continued his false, negative personal attacks against conservative Republican Tom Graves.
 
On Thursday, Hawkins sent a false mailer to voters saying Graves had a "JUDGEMENT" to pay his bills and that he was "currently being sued."
 
However, in the email released today by Hawkins it proves he altered court documents in attempt to cause harm to Graves' campaign for Congress.
 
Hawkins selected partial copies of the papers to include on the mailers and in one instance he added a "JUDGEMENT" stamp on the court records.  But in the documents released today in Hawkins' email, no where does it show the "JUDGEMENT" stamp, proving it was added by Hawkins.
 
Hawkins also removed half of the document in the mailer thus eliminating the official stamp from Gordon County Magistrate Court stating that the action had been cancelled.
 
In addition, Hawkins continues his false attack that Graves is currently being sued, but fails to provide the documentation showing the lawsuit had been dismissed nearly two years ago by the plaintiffs.
 
"In his own email, Lee Hawkins proves his negative mail piece is bogus," said Tim Baker Graves Campaign Manger.  "He added a "JUDGEMENT" stamp that was never on the official document and fails to show that both lawsuits had been cancelled or dismissed.  Unable to advance his campaign on the issues, Lee Hawkins continues playing gutter politics by personally attacking Tom.  I don't see how any of these attacks demonstrate to the voters why they should elect Lee Hawkins."
 
"This is just another attack in Lee Hawkins' political career that proves he will say and do anything to get elected," added Baker.  "Desperate candidates do desperate things and Lee Hawkins is a desperate candidate trying to save his political career."  
 
Baker says North Georgia can take comfort in the fact they should only have another couple days to put up with Hawkins' deceptions.  "With Tom Graves, you get a genuine proven leader who has never met a tax cut he didn't like, is as solid as a rock on the 2nd Amendment and will fight with ever fiber in his body to limit the role of government in our lives."
