Dem PAC tells voters their vote will be made public (campaign, Republican)

[PilgrimsProgress]

It's one thing for candidates to lie but for their campaigns to lie to the public about actual laws or rules should be punishable with huge fines to get their attention.

The ad claims that votes are “public record” and one’s “community” would know if they did what was necessary to defeat Jones’ opponent Republican Roy Moore.

The Alabama Sec of State's office had to issue a statement....
The statement calls the ad “a targeted effort to misinform and confuse voters,” but says it has not received follow-up information from the Highway 31 PAC.

Wow... I don't like Moore but liberals and their lying ads... the running over people ad in Virginia and this ad in Alabama... liberals that do this are slime... they never can elevate to anything higher than slime...

Your party registration and the fact that you voted in a particular election are in fact public records and have been since about forever.

I'm not enamored of the use those facts are put to in this particular ad though.

LOL!
A little intimidation. That should work on some hard headed rednecks.
