2022 AL Governor's race: on Technology


Kay Ivey: Slams Facebook for temporary removal of campaign page

Ivey took a hardline approach to Big Tech, blasting Facebook over the temporary removal of her gubernatorial campaign page and accusing it of working to stop conservatives from speaking out on opposition to federal coronavirus vaccine mandates. By the same afternoon Ivey's campaign page had been reinstated, but she blamed Facebook for the removal, accusing it of being upset that she was protecting Alabamians from federal government overreach by "standing in the way" of Biden.

Kay Ivey: Big Tech & blue state liberals stole election from Trump

In April, during the Republican primary, incumbent Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey released an ad in which she falsely claimed, "The fake news, Big Tech and blue state liberals stole the election from President Trump." Challenged about the ad by local television station WVTM 13, Ivey said she believes Trump was the rightful winner. (He lost.)

The Ivey campaign did not respond to a request for comment.
