Sen. Raphael Warnock courts Asian American vote in Georgia with digital ads

Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock is releasing a trio of ads aimed at getting Asian Americans to the polls ahead of the Dec. 6 runoff election in Georgia.

The digital ads, titled “Proud,” feature Warnock voters speaking in Vietnamese, Mandarin and Korean and attacking Republican challenger Herschel Walker.

“I’m proud to call Georgia home, but I’d be embarrassed to call Herschel Walker my senator,” the narrators say. “So I’m doing my part and voting for Reverend Warnock in the runoff on Dec. 6. I hope you’ll join me.”

The ads have a short run time of around 20 seconds and underscore efforts to secure the Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) vote ahead of the critical Senate showdown.
