Democratic operatives, led by a former Obama official, bought ads on misleading Facebook pages to suppress GOP turnout in the midterm elections.
The pages appear to be designed to give the impression that they were operated by disgruntled conservatives rather than Democratic operatives.
Democratic operatives funded by left-wing tech billionaire Reid Hoffman ran a widespread campaign using misleading Facebook pages in the run-up to the 2018 midterm elections, The Daily Caller News Foundation has found.
American Engagement Technologies, which was founded by former Obama administration official Mikey Dickerson, bought ads for two Facebook pages, "The Daily Real" and "Today's Nation," encouraging Republican voters to stay home in the midterm elections, Facebook's ad archives show.
One series of ads pushed the narrative that the Democratic "Blue wave" was actually a "Myth" and said the polls showing a Democratic advantage were "Unreliable."
"Some Trump supporters see midterm losses for congressional republicans [sic] as a wake-up call to get serious on the wall," the Democratic operatives wrote in another post.
Voting for Democrats to send a message "Feels like the best option," the Democratic operatives wrote.
