LINCOLN– Dan Osborn, an independent candidate for the Senate, has issued a cease-and-desist letter to a Super PAC associated with Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, claiming that the PAC's advertisements contain false and defamatory statements about him.

The letter contends that the ads misrepresent Osborn's position, specifically citing an inaccurate quote attributed to him. The complaint further asserts that the ads were created with “actual malice.”
