Republican gubernatorial candidate Bruce Blakeman told Democrats to get over it after party leaders filed a complaint against him for a series of AI campaign ads.
Blakeman said he’d continue to use artificial intelligence ads despite a complaint to the Board of Elections from state Democratic Party chairman Jay Jacobs that accused the GOP candidate of violating state law by not disclosing the use of the tech in some of the ads.
“Everybody knows it’s AI, and it’s funny — so what’s your problem? Get a life,” Blakeman, who is currently serving as Nassau County executive, said during a campaign stop in Flushing, Queens on Monday.
“I don’t know what [the Democrats’] problem is — they’re trying to cheat — I guess because it’s so effective,” Blakeman said of his ads, which often depict his political foes Gov. Kathy Hochul and Mayor Zohran Mamdani in outrageous, exaggerated scenarios.
Some of his recent AI ads include videos depicting an AI Hochul appearing to rob a bank, playing poker and gambling taxpayer funds with Mamdani. In another the AI Democrat is offered crack from a dealer she calls a “nice young man,” while she gets a ringing endorsements from illegal migrants, lobbyists, and a drug dealer named “White Boy Rej.”
Jacobs, however, finds nothing about the ads funny, and said Blakeman is “distort[ing] reality” and “misleading” voters into believing Hochul said and did things that she has not, according to the complaint sent to the BOE on Monday.
“The Blakeman campaign has been proud to convert taxpayer dollars into campaign funds and then use those public matching funds to support campaign activities that violate the Election Law,” Jacobs wrote.
