A Perdue campaign spokesperson told The Hill in a statement that the edit was “handled by an outside vendor” and “accidental” and that the photo was “immediately removed” from Facebook.
“In the graphic design process handled by an outside vendor, the photo was resized and a filter was applied, which appears to have caused an unintentional error that distorted the image,” the spokesperson said. “Obviously, this was accidental, but to ensure there is absolutely no confusion, we have immediately removed the image from Facebook.”
