Ted Cruz’s wife attempted to garner supporters for her husband while in the women’s restroom at an event in Cedar Falls, Iowa, the Des Moines Register reported on Thursday.

“Go to his website and there are all sorts of position papers,” Heidi Cruz reportedly said.

Cruz’s dedicated wife could be heard talking about what a nice guy “Ted” was and extolling his beliefs, according to the paper.

“We are an open book,” Heidi Cruz reportedly told a Des Moines Register reporter who was washing her hands. “We’re here to talk to everyone.”

Heidi Cruz reportedly posed with potential voters and discussed President Obama, immigration reform and even her children with the ladies in the restroom.

Cruz announced his 2016 candidacy on March 23 at an event at Liberty University in Virginia. Heidi Cruz took leave from a career with Goldman Sachs to go on the campaign trail with her husband.
