Silicon Valley Organization calls racially charged political ad a ‘horrifying mistake’

The Silicon Valley Organization — the South Bay’s largest Chamber of Commerce — shared on Tuesday investigation findings into a racist attack ad posted to its website but did hold anyone accountable.

Instead, SVO executive board member Kevin Surace said the third-party investigation found that the ad was a result of “a lack of communication and breakdown in process between many people” and “did not uncover any specific intent to post racist material or stoke racial divisions.”
