Doug Jones Ad Targeting Roy Moore Slammed as ‘Racist’

With less than a week until Election Day, Alabama Democrat Senate candidate Doug Jones has angered black voters by attacking Republican opponent Roy Moore with a flyer some critics are calling a racist advertisement.

The black-centric website The Root was also incensed by the ad.

The Root’s Michael Harriot tore into the ad:

“Part of the reason the Democratic Party has been marginalized as a party that only exists on the coasts and in urban areas is whitemannery like this,” Harriot added. “The Democratic Party is trash. It is the reason Hillary Clinton lost. It is the reason Donald Trump is president.”

Black voters on social media are no happier over the metrics of the ad.
