Santa Barbara County Democrats are blowing up over an AI-generated political ad that targets a Latino candidate running for the county board of supervisors. The ad, texted by the county’s Republican Party to voters, depicts Democrat-endorsed candidate Ricardo Valencia as a clown roaming the city of Santa Maria amid scenes of fire, homeless encampments and crime. According to the Santa Barbara News-Press, there is a voiceover with a “stereotypical Latino accent” that accuses Valencia of failing to address key issues affecting voters.
