GOP congressional candidate Brian Kalk has voluntarily pulled a television advertisement off the air after questions were raised about a disclaimer issue.

The ad shows a photo of Kalk in his U.S. Marine Corps uniform, which is permitted. However, Kalk said the campaign forgot to include a disclaimer that is required by the Defense Department.

"Based on some of the questions we had today, we're going to go ahead and add an additional disclaimer on the ad that makes it very clear that we're not endorsed by the Department of Defense or the Marine Corps just to make sure it's very clear to folks that we're not endorsed by them," said Kalk.

Kalk said the ad will be back on the air after the changes are made.

Kalk is facing Public Service Commissioner Kevin Cramer in the GOP primary. The winner will run against Democrat Pam Gulleson in the general election.
