Former Republican gubernatorial candidate Eric Deters has canceled Freedom Fest.
Again.
The annual political event at Deters’ farm in Morning View features national political figures. This year’s event, scheduled for Sept. 9, was supposed to feature former President Donald Trump. Deters announced the first cancellation on Aug. 12 after Trump backed out of the event.
Then on Aug. 24, Deters announced in a video on his Facebook page that it was back on.
In another live Facebook video on Sept. 1, Deters announced that the event, once again, is canceled.
“I tried to uncancel it at the request of a bunch of people and uncancelling it has just been a cluster mess,” he said.
He continued to say that the event has been “too good of an event” to put on a lousy event, which he said it would have been this year.
“It’s all on me,” he said. “It’s all my fault.”
