New campaign finance reports reveal that Virginia Democrat gubernatorial candidate Ralph Northam’s campaign coordinated with the Latino Victory Fund (LVF) on the LVF’s “sickening” ad, which even the Washington Post called “vile.”
The Latino Victory Fund ran an ad that featured an Ed Gillespie supporter attempting to run down minority children. The Gillespie campaign decried this ad as “disgusting” and an “attack on the people of Virginia.”
A report from the Washington Post suggested that the LVF allegedly created their controversial ad to spur minority support for Virginia Democrat Ralph Northam due to private polling that reveals low support for the Virginia gubernatorial candidate.
Virginia State Sen. Barbara Favola said that Republicans, “Are evil, we’re the good guys” at a rally for Virginia Democratic gubernatorial candidate Ralph Northam.
The Washington Post editorial board slammed the Latino Victory Fund’s “vile” and “despicable” ad and chided the Virginia Democrat gubernatorial candidate Ralph Northam for calling out that ad.
Now, new reports from the Virginia Department of Elections reveal that the LVF and the Ralph Northam campaign coordinated on the “vile” LVF ad. On October 17, Northam’s campaign received two in-kind contributions in amounts of $23,475 and $2,870.10 from the Latino Victory PAC (LVP), described as “advertising” and “media.” On November 1, the Northam campaign reported receiving a large pre-election in-kind contribution from the LVP for $62,729.60 for “media.” According to the Virginia State Board of Elections’ Summary of Laws and Policies for Candidate Campaign Committees, Section 4.2 “In-Kind Contribution vs. Independent Expenditures,” the statute reads, “To qualify as an in-kind contribution, the candidate or an agent of the candidate’s campaign committee must have either expressly requested or suggested to the person or committee that the expenditure be made, or the candidate or an agent of the candidate campaign committee must have material involvement in devising the strategy...

Northam would be carrying on the tradition of vile VA governors. Exhibit A: the outgoing governor, Terry McAlliffe.
Bummer. I thought dreamers was positive.
I’ve seen this ad.
Right up there with the one from Tx w/ James Byrd’s daughter doing the voiceover about how voting for Bush (?) would be like dragging him behind a truck for the second time.
I’m triggered by this ad. I need millions to make me feel better. Who do I talk to? (only half /s )

Quick - retreat to your safe space.
I heard someone here suggest greasing those kids and trying to catch them like a rodeo event. I’m surprised we haven’t seen any parodies yet.
and Northam is a VMI grad. Disgusting.
Negative political ads do work...
Someone didn’t do their homework here...
The ad is so over the top it will have the opposite effect by making republicans GOTV...
I’d hope that he’s the exception. On the other hand, Washington & Lee (their neighbor) makes rotten apples look clean.
Yes we all can see what great guys you all are in the Democrat Party, Barbara A. Favola. I hope it backfires on you big time.
anyone got a link to it? Sounds crazy.
ALL Democrats are VILE and EVIL!!!
I’m really surprised that pickup truck didn’t have a Trump sticker on it right next to the Gillespie sticker.
Just remember legally registered voters in Virginia that the brutal, murder/riot in Charlottesville, VA was planned, setup and carried out by Virginia Democrat, Governor, Terry McAullife and his Black Racist stooges in Charlottesville. McAullife ordered the local, state and national guard to stand down and let the riot commence, uncontested by law enforcement..
The great Commonwealth & State of Virginia deserves much better then Terry McAuliffe and Ralph Northam, the scum and vermin of the Obama/Clinton hate America, Democrat Party, clan. On election day, next Tuesday, November 7, 2017, every Virginia voter should turn out to vote for Republican, Ed Gillespie for Governor of Virginia.
Do you the citizens of Virginia want your once great state to be the cesspool residence of the MS-13 gangs of thugs, murderers, drug dealers and Slave sex traders, etc.? Or, do you want the once highly, praised, civilized, state you once were? The enemy (illegal aliens) is moving freely among you, unabated, thanks to “Hate America” Democrats, McAuliffe and Northam. Your choice.
Vote for Ed Gillespie & Make America & Virginia Great Once Again, or do you choose die slowly on the vine of the Democrat Party, Liberalism & Destruction of sane, society. End of story!!!
Send Racist Ralph Northam and the McAwful Moonbats packing next Tuesday !
Ed Gillespie and George W. Bush invited all those illegal aliens here.
bump to the top
