Republican campaign poster outrages English village
(CNN)A Republican politician from Illinois has angered the residents of a coastal English village by featuring a picture of its streets to depict “foreclosures, unemployment and economic recession.”
Last week the Facebook page of Dr. Nick Stella, a Republican who’s running to represent the 11th Illinois congressional district in the US midterm elections next week, posted an advertisement headlined: “Only you can stop this from becoming reality!”
It was aimed at attacking Stella’s Democrat opponent and the district incumbent, Bill Foster. But bizarrely, it featured an image of a residential street in Jaywick Sands in the UK’s eastern county of Essex.
