The Evangelicals for Harris group bought an ad around Tuesday’s vice presidential debate, aiming to win over a Protestant audience.
The new ad, “Mr. Walz,” tells the story of Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) defending a student after she was mocked for her faith. It will air during the vice presidential debate and be featured prominently in the swing states of North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Georgia, and Arizona.
“When I was in high school, I was one of the Christian kids. I wore Jesus T-shirts, I had a cross necklace, and I was always doodling Christian symbols on my notebooks,” a woman identified as Carly said. “I was bullied for this, but I had a teacher that noticed what was going on and put a stop to the bullying. That teacher was Tim Walz.”
