She and her husband, Allen, tried for 10 years without success.

We recognize truth and reason as essential to a free and just society, and expect our leaders, citizens, and press to seek and promote them. We oppose the employment of fear mongering, conspiracy theories, and falsehoods and instead support evidence-based policymaking and honest discourse.
We reaffirm the Constitution's guarantee of free speech and freedom of the press as essential to accountable government and the American way of life. We sustain the rights of individuals and private entities to exercise this freedom, even to express unpopular views, and condemn efforts to erode press freedom and public support for its vital role.
Speaking after the march on a CNN panel, McMullin said, "Not all Republicans, of course, are racist. I was raised by Republicans who welcome Americans of all backgrounds and are not at all alike. But there is an element of the Republican base that is racist, and our leaders are afraid to stand up to them, because if they do, if they do so, they'll be criticized, and they'll potentially lose votes, and so they don't do it."
McMullin, who is running against Lee as an independent, called out the ad, saying it edited his own words as a deception to protect his opponent. The McMullin campaign has asked television stations to stop running the ad.
