LINCOLN- Sarpy County voters received a campaign flyer from Senator Andrew La Grone last week that was supposed to paint his challenger Jen Day as 'too extreme' for the Nebraska Legislature. However, there was a blaring error. The picture used was not a picture of Day and was actually a picture of a volunteer on Day's campaign taken from her Facebook page.
Brooklynne Rosado says having her picture plastered on the ad was humiliating and the message did not represent her or who Jen Day is as a candidate. La Grone says the mistake was 'inadvertent and unfortunate'. La Grone is seeking to win his first election after he was appointed by the governor prior to the 2019 session. On Wednesday a second attack ad by La Grone hit mailboxes, once again using the same volunteer photo as the previous mailer.
Day won the District 49 primary garnering 53% of the vote and will face off with La Grone on Nov. 3. Both Day and Rosado believe the senator owes them an apology.
