A homophobic and transphobic robocall was launched against openly LGBTQ West Virginia State Senate candidate Stephen Skinner – just four days before the election. The speaker claims to be a 12-year-old girl, and says the candidate “pushed the city council to let men in our showers” and that Stephen Skinner “only cares about gay activism.” The full ad – paid for by the anti-LGBTQ hate group Family Policy Council – can be heard here.
Our community must respond to this sort of attack, and quickly. Make a last minute contribution to Stephen Skinner’s campaign so he can use the next few days to counter the hate-filled message as people head to the polls.
