Richmond Editorial Board: Virginia Dems Attempting to Link Gillespie to White Nationalists Is ‘Practically Libel’

 

The Richmond Times-Dispatch editorial board on Wednesday slammed Virginia Democrats for attempting to link Republican gubernatorial candidate Ed Gillespie to white nationalist "hate" in a new mailer, calling their effort "practically libel."

Democratic gubernatorial candidate Ralph Northam's campaign has castigated Gillespie in the weeks leading up to Election Day for his ads painting Northam as soft on the MS-13 street gang and sex offenders. Now, Northam is taking his response a step further.

All three campaigns on Virginia's Democratic ticket approved a new mailer ad that was released Tuesday showing Gillespie and President Donald Trump superimposed above a photo of white nationalists holding tiki torches.

"That isn't merely a reach. It's practically libel," the editorial board wrote.

  1. Remember the vile Haley? This is a very good place for her
    for desecrating the Confederate flag. She should have been
    a Nationalist. Pretty funny predicament.
