'I stand on my record, I stand on the record of this office:' District attorney calls on opponent to take down campaign

[RandySF]

WILMINGTON, N.C. (WECT) - A candidate running for district attorney is calling on his opponent to take down campaign advertisements he says are “misleading.”

The two candidates running for DA in New Hanover and Pender Counties are Assistant District Attorney Jason Smith and District Attorney Rebecca Zimmer Donaldson. Both work in the DA’s office.

Smith claims that Zimmer Donaldson’s recent campaign ad paints the entire DA’s office in a negative light. He claims his opponent has launched a deceiving attack. He and 15 other attorneys out of 21 in the DA’s office, are calling on Zimmer Donaldson to remove the ad.

Those 15 attorneys signed a petition saying, “In the best interest of this office, please discontinue these attack ads.”
