Republican running for Elijah Cummings's seat goes viral with Black Lives Matter ad

An ad for a Republican running for the late Rep. Elijah Cummings’s (D-Md.) congressional seat went viral, with the candidate pushing a message that “All Black Lives Matter.” 

The GOP candidate, Kimberly Klacik, who is Black, argues in the digital ad that Democrats have failed the people of Baltimore after more than 50 years as she is seen walking through part of the city. 

“Baltimore has been run by the Democrat Party for 53 years. What is the result of their decades of leadership?” Klacik asks in the ad. 
 

Democrats don’t want you to see this.

They’re scared that I’m exposing what life is like in Democrat run cities.

That’s why I’m running for Congress
Because All Black Lives Matter
Baltimore Matters
And black people don’t have to vote Democrat
Help us win https://t.co/CSOjc9aQlS pic.twitter.com/XnEDTaDDIG
