<p>A <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/house-democrats" target="_blank" rel="noopener">House Democrat</a> running to become the next mayor of <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/houston" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Houston</a>, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/texas" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Texas</a>, appeared in a campaign advertisement showing the wrong date.</p>
<p>The ad featuring Rep. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/sheila-jackson-lee" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sheila Jackson Lee</a> (D-TX), which <a href="https://www.mediaite.com/news/oops-democratic-congresswoman-puts-out-new-ad-urging-her-supporters-to-vote-on-the-wrong-day/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mediaite reported</a> had made it to air in Houston television markets, encouraged supporters to vote on December 7 or earlier — even though the run-off election is set to take place on Saturday, December 9.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">

<p>Angelica Luna-Kaufman, a spokesperson for Jackson Lee&#8217;s campaign, offered an explanation <a href="https://www.chron.com/news/article/sheila-jackson-lee-houston-texas-18532403.php" target="_blank" rel="noopener">to local news outlet Chron</a>.</p>
<p>&#8220;New ads were shipped out immediately. Once we were made aware we contacted our ad agency &#8230; and they made the change and immediately sent them out,&#8221; the spokesperson said, adding, &#8220;The news stations did not pull the commercial as we had requested.&#8221;</p>
<p>Jackson Lee and state senator John Whitmire, both Democrats, are set to face-off in the run-off this weekend. They took the top two spots in last month&#8217;s election. No one in a crowded field of more <a href="https://www.npr.org/2023/11/08/1211323730/houston-mayor-runoff-election-john-whitmire-sheila-jackson-lee" target="_blank" rel="noopener">than a dozen candidates</a> reached the 50% threshold to outright win and replace term-limited Mayor Sylvester Turner, who <a href="https://www.houstonchronicle.com/politics/houston/article/houston-mayor-turner-endorses-jackson-lee-runoff-18478351.php" target="_blank" rel="noopener">endorsed</a> Jackson Lee in the run-off.</p>
<p>The botched ad featured comments from Jackson Lee explaining her background and top issues.</p>
<p>&#8220;Houston, I’ve spent my entire career fighting for you from fighting to keep our kids safe from guns when I was on city council, to my days in Congress fighting to protect women’s reproductive freedom and for funding for our police, schools, and small businesses,&#8221; Jackson Lee said.</p>
<p>&#8220;Now I&#8217;m running to be your mayor because if we&#8217;re going to bring down crime, fix our streets, and bring good-paying jobs here, then Houston needs a champion who is ready to fight for what is right. And I am,&#8221; she added.</p>
<p>In the run-up to the November election, Jackson Lee faced controversy with the release of a tape that <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/democrat-sheila-jackson-lee-allegedly-caught-berating-staff-two-gd-big-a-fing-idiots" target="_blank" rel="noopener">allegedly contained audio</a> of the congresswoman berating her staff. Jackson Lee <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/sheila-jackson-lee-addresses-leaked-audio-tape-of-her-viciously-berating-staff" target="_blank" rel="noopener">responded</a> with a statement conceding that she is &#8220;not perfect&#8221; and imploring voters to judge her at the polls based on her public service rather than &#8220;something trotted out by a political opponent that worked to exploit this, and backed by extreme Republican supporters.&#8221;</p>
