New ‘insulting’ Harris ad targets Black men's love lives

Article here. Excerpt:

'Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign released a new digital advertisement that targets Black men's love lives, insinuating that they will be rejected by women if they don’t have a plan to vote.

The ads depict a dating game in which a Black man approaches a group of women who are holding balloons. They begin to ask him questions about himself, including how much he makes, how tall he is and whether he works out.

The man’s answers get seemingly positive responses from the women, until one asks him if he has a plan to vote in November.

"Nah, not my thing," the man says, prompting all the women in the scene to pop their balloons.

"Vote. Election Day is Nov 5," reads a message at the end of the ad alongside a Harris-Walz campaign logo.

"New Harris/Walz ad tells black men that women will reject them if they don’t vote," Center for the Study of Partisanship and Ideology President Richard Hanania remarked in a post on X along with a video of the ad. "Memorable and works as an appeal to self-interest."'
