Far-Left Group to Launch $1.2 Million Ad Blitz Pressuring Kyrsten Sinema to Trash Filibuster

Wendell Husebø 21 Jun 2021

A far-left group will run $1.2 million worth of ads in Arizona from June 21 to June 30 to pressure Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) into trashing the filibuster, amid fears the Republicans will use it to block the legislation designed cancel state voter ID laws and publicly fund political campaigns.

Just Democracy will air two ads on cable news programs, local news, and local sports in Arizona and spend $200,000 on digital ads to garner support for the “For The People Act.”

One ad begins in reference to her past voting record, “Arizona, Kyrsten Sinema is failing us.”

“As the GOP tries to silence our voices, she’s just standing by, supporting a Jim Crow relic instead,” the ad says. “You’re refusing to stand with us, Sen. Sinema. Why should we stand with you?”

A second ad slams Sinema for not “fighting” for federal takeover of local elections. “You’re doing their [Republicans] dirty work, letting a Jim Crow relic keep us down.”

“Our right to vote is under attack,” the ad continues, calling out Sinema for upholding the filibuster.

Why not just give (buy) her the money instead?
