WASHINGTON _ A new radio ad seeks to frighten black voters away from Sen. Claire McCaskill's campaign by suggesting the Democrat supports lynchings.
Another ad tells black voters to ask McCaskill "why she doesn't want our children."
It took Missouri Attorney General Josh Hawley's campaign more than four hours to respond to the ads, which are meant to boost the Republican's campaign. The one-sentence response came after African-American Democratic leaders blasted Hawley's silence and McClatchy provided audio of both ads to the campaign.
