Jennifer Carlson, a Republican candidate in Montana, is fighting back against fake campaign mailers that doctored her photo and labeled her as woke. She filed a complaint with the Commissioner of Political Practices, citing a new law against deepfakes. The mailers, sent by a PAC led by former legislator Dan Bartel, targeted Carlson and Rep. Eric Albus, pushing an anti-DEI message. Despite the confusion caused by the mailers, Carlson is determined to fight back, while Albus chooses not to file a complaint. Experts warn that these altered images can breed distrust and turn voters off. Carlsons push against deepfakes could set a tone for Montana Republicans in these heated races.
