Democratic Party of Georgia Launches Three New TV Ads in Secretary of State Race

Ad Blitz Calls Out Raffensperger’s Record On Abortion, Voting Rights

This week, the Democratic Party of Georgia is blanketing the state with three new television ads in the Secretary of State’s race, running in the Atlanta, Savannah, Augusta, Macon, and Columbus media markets. The ads highlight Brad Raffensperger’s extreme record – including sponsoring one of Georgia’s worst anti-choice bills and supporting one of the most restrictive new voting laws in the country in 2021 – and paint the stark contrast between Raffensperger and Democratic nominee for Secretary of State Bee Nguyen.

Last month, Democrats launched the first general election ad of the race, focused on Raffensperger’s support for a dangerous abortion ban with zero exceptions – even in cases of rape, incest, or to save the mother’s life. The ad directs voters to TheRealRaffensperger.com, which houses more information on Brad Raffensperger’s problematic record which is out of step with the vast majority of Georgians.

Watch the ads “Restrict”, “Amendment”, and “Think Again” below:

TRANSCRIPT:

After first certifying that there were no problems with the 2020 election, 

Brad Raffensperger then helped pass one of the most restrictive new voting laws in the country:

Making voting harder in Georgia by nearly eliminating drop boxes, 

Criminalizing handing out water to people in line, 

And giving politicians the ability to strip power from local election boards if they don’t like the results. 

You may think you know Brad Raffensperger.

But you don’t know the whole story.

TRANSCRIPT:

2016.

A state representative proposes a personhood amendment to change Georgia’s constitution.

His name? Brad Raffensperger.

One of the most extreme anti-abortion bills in Georgia history.

Raffensperger wanted to outlaw abortion at the moment of fertilization.

Making all abortions illegal with no exceptions.

It could even ban common forms of birth control. 

You may think you know Brad Raffensperger.

But you don’t know the whole story.

TRANSCRIPT:

Brad Raffensperger’s not who you think he is.

He pushed through Georgia’s voter suppression law…

“Making it illegal to give food or water to voters in line.”

And to make abortion a crime – no exceptions.

Bee Nguyen will protect our rights. 

[Nguyen:] “This is a partisan power grab!”

[CNN anchor:] “Bee Nguyen singlehandedly debunked a claim of voter fraud…”

[Nguyen:] “We need truth!”

[CNN anchor:] “And you told the truth!”

[Nguyen:] “As your Secretary of State, I will defend the rights of all Georgians.”

[Nguyen:] “Bee Nguyen is my name, and when we vote, we all win.”
