Incumbent LA County Sheriff Alex Villanueva apparently took down a new campaign ad after the Archdiocese of Los Angeles objected to where it was filmed, St. Alphonsus Church in East LA.
In a tweet that had included the video, the caption said,"It takes strength to lead others & fight those that would do harm. I draw much of my strength from the man above."
"The video was filmed without the appropriate approvals of the Archdiocese. Archdiocesan policy prohibits any filming of ads on archdiocesan property for candidates running for office. The Archdiocese, which includes our parishes, schools, and ministries, does not endorse or participate in political candidates' campaign activity," a statement from the Archdiocese of Los Angeles said.
The ad sparked additional controversy when it brought calls for the resignation of Villanueva's campaign manager, Javier Gonzalez.
