New TV ad ties Kentucky AG Daniel Cameron to Manhattan D.A.
Read Original Source
By Alexandra Marquez Ahead of next month's Republican primary in the Kentucky's governor's race, one outside group is out with a new TV ad tying state Attorney General Daniel Cameron to Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg. Bragg has faced attacks from former President Donald Trump and other Republicans since he brought charges against Trump in New York last week over hush money payments made to an adult film star during the 2016 presidential campaign.
