Things are getting nasty in the closing days of the race in the 13th Congressional District.
Republican Rodney Davis has a new ad in which he says Democratic opponent Dr. David Gill was fired from a hospital for “advocating unlawful medical practices.”
Gill was terminated from a clinic in Bloomington after he wrote a letter to the editor saying physician-assisted suicide should be allowed, but he says he would never advocate such a practice unless it were allowed under the law.
Gill’s campaign calls the Davis ad “slanderous.”
