The Idaho Republican Party has removed social media posts that added a mocking laugh track aimed at a Democratic candidate.
The GOP on Monday removed a post from its Twitter and Instagram accounts that contained a copyrighted clip from Idaho Public Television’s “Idaho Debates,” augmented with a mocking laugh track pointed at Democratic gubernatorial candidate Paulette Jordan. IPTV sent a formal letter to the party, asking the GOP to cease and desist with the use of the footage.
Jordan, a former state lawmaker from Plummer, faces Republican Brad Little in the governor’s race to be decided in next month’s general election. (AP)
