Virginia gubernatorial candidate Glenn Youngkin called out a Democrat-linked ad campaign targeting Republican voters that portrayed him as insufficiently pro-gun.
An investigation by the Daily Caller News Foundation on Monday revealed two Democrat-linked consultant firms, Gambit Strategies and MBA Consulting Group, were behind a digital ad campaign portraying Youngkin, a Republican, as untrustworthy on gun rights, criticizing the candidate for failing to earn an endorsement from the National Rifle Association (NRA). Additional reporting by Axios revealed the ads were directed towards Republican-heavy zip codes in an apparent effort to suppress turnout ahead of Youngkin’s clash with Democratic opponent Terry McAuliffe at the polls on Nov. 2.
