NEW: Local TV Stations Pull Down False GOP Ad Smearing Janelle Stelson

Multiple stations will not run the ad from Trump’s PAC – the first time this cycle across the House battlefield that an ad has been pulled by a station

Multiple Harrisburg-area TV stations are pulling down or outright refusing to air a false and defamatory ad from Donald Trump’s No Going Back PAC that smears Janelle Stelson.

The ad – like the ad that Vivek Ramaswamy is running in Ohio – is so disgusting that it has drawn intense backlash from Central Pennsylvanians and the press in recent days.

POLITICO reports that “it is highly unusual that television stations actually pull [ads] down,” demonstrating the uniquely despicable nature of the pro-Perry ad.

DCCC Spokesperson Eli Cousin:
“We are seeing Republicans across the country run despicable, blatantly false ads in the closing days of this election because they know they’re about to lose. Their attack on Janelle Stelson is so defamatory and disgusting that it’s being taken off the airwaves – marking the first time this cycle across the House battlefield that an ad has been pulled by stations. We will continue to fight back against their lies and are confident they will backfire with voters.”
