A new TV ad by Democrat Alison Lundergan Grimes touts her work in helping bring about Kentucky’s Address Confidentiality Program, which permits victims of sexual assault and domestic violence to scrap their addresses for public voter registration rolls.

“Something good can still happen here,” says a narrator in the ad, Markas Brunson, described as the son of a domestic violence victim. “Alison Lundergan Grimes brought Democrats and Republicans together to pass a law so victims of domestic violence could vote without their address being made public.”

The Lexington Herald-Leader covered the launch of the program in March 2014.

A Grimes campaign spokeswoman said only that the ad buy was “significant.”
