KS-03: Fearful mother in ad attacking Sharice Davids is a Kansas GOP official
A fearful mother stares into a camera and warns that Democratic candidate Sharice Davids will put her four children at risk.
In a new ad from a super PAC linked to House Speaker Paul Ryan, Alana Roethle of Leawood, Kansas, calls Davids “too risky for Kansas families.”
What Roethle does not say in the ad is that she is secretary of the Kansas Republican Party and a member of the Kansas Lottery Commission, who was appointed to her seat by then-Gov. Sam Brownback in 2015.
In the ad, she parrots a GOP talking point about the Johnson County Democrat’s position on border security in the ad that contrasts footage of Roethle’s smiling children against images of shadowy hooded figures and protests.
Roethle has long-standing ties to both the state and national GOP. She served as a delegate at the 2016 Republican convention and attended President Donald Trump’s inauguration, according to her biography on the state party’s website.
The ad was paid for by The Congressional Leadership Fund, a super PAC linked to House GOP leadership that works to elect congressional Republicans. It does not mention or disclose Roethle’s official role with the party.
