Mailers sent late last week by an unknown group accuse a Republican state senate candidate of “coming out of the liberal closet” and being “openly homosexual” only days before voters head to the polls. The flyers, received Friday by Fairfax voters in Virginia’s 32nd state Senate district, blast Republican candidate Patrick Forrest as a “greater threat to the conservative agenda than a Democrat ever will be” because of his stances on homosexuality and immigration.

The return address on the flyers is “Our Heritage USA,” but no such group exists on the web or in election records published by the Virginia Public Access Project. The Lynchburg return address is an empty parking lot, according to Google Maps’ street view.
