PR Newswire - Press Release
NO on 8 Reveals New Ad Showing Obama, Schwarzenegger, Feinstein Joining Together Calling for Defeat of Unfair Initiative

Ad Answers Proposition 8's Dishonest Flyer Targeting African-American Voters

SACRAMENTO, Calif., Nov. 1 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Hours after the Proposition 8 campaign admitted it had mailed a flyer to African-American voters that lies about Sen. Barack Obama's position on the initiative, the NO on 8 Campaign launched a statewide television ad reminding voters that Sen. Obama, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sen. Dianne Feinstein, as well as the state's leading newspapers, have all called for the defeat of Proposition 8.

Using the words each of these leaders has used to describe the unfair initiative, the new ad makes clear that Sen. Obama has called Prop 8 "divisive and discriminatory," that Gov. Schwarzenegger has said "it should never happen," and Sen. Feinstein closes by telling voters: "No matter how you feel about marriage, vote against discrimination, and Vote NO on 8."

In response to the mailer received by African-American Californians that misrepresented the position of Sen. Obama and his running mate, Sen. Joe Biden, the Obama campaign released the following statement last night:

"The Obama-Biden ticket opposes Proposition 8 and similar discriminatory constitutional amendments that could roll back the civil rights he and Sen. Biden strongly believe should be afforded to all Americans."

"This incredible cross-section of support comes at the same time that Prop 8 continues to spin a campaign of lies and distortions," said Patrick Guerriero, NO On Prop 8 Campaign Manager. "Proposition 8 is wrong, and targeting certain communities with lies is wrong. Voters get it, and that's why Prop 8 will fail on Tuesday."
