Facebook Suspends Republican Ad Campaign Days Before Georgia Election
By Jim Hayek January 2, 2021

Facebook temporarily disabled a Republican advertising effort in the Georgia Senate runoffs days before the election.

The National Republican Senatorial Committee announced the “unacceptable” restrictions on Twitter, writing, “Facebook has shut down the ad account for the Georgia Battleground Fund, a joint fundraising committee for NRSC, @Perduesenate, and @kloeffler. This is unacceptable with only 4 days to Election Day.”

The NRSC included a screenshot of the restriction page, which alleged the group violated Facebook’s ban on “ads that promote products, services, schemes or offers using deceptive or misleading practices, including those meant to mislead or scam people out of money or personal information.”

Facebook lifted its ban on political advertising for Georgia on Dec.16, after banning political ads after the polls closed on Nov. 3.
