Whatever works, right? I guess not.

Unlike any other election year before it, there has been a strong campaign of athletes, celebrities, and public personalities urging folks to not only register to vote, but to go out and do so in one of the most controversial elections in recent memory.

Former ESPN personality Jemele Hill is also on that wave is well, which is why she took to social media and dropped a video of strippers twerking to get people’s attention and urge them to vote.

Check it out:

Can’t wait for tomorrow’s episode of #StickToSports on @VICETV (10p). Our whole show is about voting. Our guests are @staceyabrams & @ilazer. Plus, we’ll discuss this new voting campaign, which is seeking to get more people to the polls —> https://t.co/595H3HhTrt pic.twitter.com/kPaYZIk5ZD

Not only is this condescending to Black male voters by perpetuating the stereotype that Black men are hyper-sexual beasts rather than ppl w/ rational political desires that need appeal, it's also dumb politically. The condescension will just turn them away from the polls. https://t.co/aGXc4zthsW

“Stick to Sports”? Strippers? Is this how Democrats connect with black people? This is shameful and black women in particular are too eager to facilitate the nonsense. https://t.co/8nMROSKT5h

Journalism is dying too, if Hill is considered an actual journalist. This is the most unserious approach to a serious matter that we’ve witnessed in quite some time. Aside from Obama’s fake Flint Water stunt… this is up there, folks. #embarrassing https://t.co/iphANa0ltT

This is what they think will appeal to Black male voters. So instead of policy you think we are politically moved by pu$$y? Go to hell Jemele. https://t.co/ACGdrIZltb

Where is the Asian, Hispanic, and Native American stripper commercial? Where's diversity now? We've been telling them to pay specific attention to us, and they do it in the form of this ridiculous commercial. Jemele Hill is ridiculous https://t.co/gY0eqrIeb8
