(Fargo, ND) -- A picture of a man giving a middle finger, with Dave Piepkorn's face cropped onto it, is being mailed to Fargo residences.

The ad features headlines of an incident that occurred in 2021, where Piepkorn made the gesture to fellow commissioner Tony Gherig in a discussion about tax incentives. The ad was paid for by Brighter Future Alliance chair Pat Finken.

Piepkorn declined to comment when asked about the ad.
