Emilia Sykes launches gymnastics-themed ad campaign ahead of the Olympics – Washington Examiner
Rep. Emilia Sykes, a Democratic Congresswoman from Ohio and former gymnastics champion, has launched a gymnastics-themed ad campaign in conjunction with the upcoming Summer Olympics in Paris. In the promotional video, Sykes showcases her gymnastics skills, performing a flip off the balance beam while delivering a message about resilience in the face of fear and adversity. She emphasizes that while others may try to intimidate, her own efforts will lead to a successful outcome, stating, “But the only thing that will stick is my landing.” The ad is set to air on local television during the Olympics’ opening week, aiming to connect with voters and bolster her campaign for Ohio’s 13th congressional district.
Emilia Sykes releases gymnastics-themed ad campaign ahead of Olympics
Rep. Emilia Sykes (D-OH) showed off her gymnastics skills in a campaign ad as the opening ceremony for the Summer Olympics in Paris is set to unfold Friday afternoon.
The ad shows Sykes, a former state gymnastics champion, flipping off the end of a balance beam.
“They’ll twist everything to scare you,” she said. “But the only thing that will stick is my landing.”
The ad campaign will appear on local television during the first week of the Olympics beginning on Friday, the Hill reported.
“Emilia Sykes has spent her entire career bringing people together to deliver for her community. Her record speaks for itself, and in the Birthplace of Champions voters know she will always put working families first,” campaign spokeswoman Maddie Summers said. “The Olympics is an opportunity to put politics aside and come together to root for American excellence, and this ad is an opportunity to showcase another champion for Northeast Ohio.”
The first-term Ohio Democrat competed in gymnastics for many years growing up and made it to the Junior Olympics twice, according to the Akron Beacon Journal.
She faces a tough race against Republican opponent Kevin Coughlin in one of the nation’s most competitive congressional districts.
Three athletes from Sykes’s district will compete for Team USA in Paris: LeBron James, Steph Curry, and BMX freestyle athlete Marcus Christopher.
