Ad Watch

U.S. Sen. Tammy Baldwin is up with a second ad addressing spots that knock her on transgender issues, this time more directly refuting the claims. GOP businessman Eric Hovde and those supporting him have run a string of spots accusing

8th CD Dem Kristin Lyerly’s campaign today released a new TV ad that knocks GOP opponent Tony Wied for failing to pay bills and overcharging for gas during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Dem 3rd CD candidate Rebecca Cooke has launched a new digital and TV ad featuring law enforcement saying ads that suggest she doesn’t support police are false. 

House Majority PAC has nearly $2.6 million in reservations in the 3rd CD between today and the election, according to AdImpact. It’s part of the $3.8 million that Dem Rebecca Cooke and the groups backing her have reserved over that period, compared to the $2.2 million by Van Orden, R-Prairie du Chien, and those supporting him.

The Congressional Leadership Fund is airing a new TV ad labeling 3rd CD Dem candidate Rebecca Cooke “just another liberal trying to fool you.”  The ad is part of $1.5 million the Congressional Leadership fund has reserved backing incumbent U.S.

U.S. Sen. Tammy Baldwin, D-Madison, has launched her own TV ad paid for by a joint fundraising committee after the FEC deadlocked on a Dem request for guidance seeking to cut off Republican candidates from continuing to run such spots.

The spot comes on the heels of several ads from Hovde and those backing him knocking Baldwin, D-Madison, on transgender issues.

The narrator in the ad says you can tell a politician isn’t from around here when they call for a ban on beer sales. The narrator says Hovde criticized alcohol sales, saying booze should only be available to people who brew or distill it themselves.

GOP-aligned Senate Leadership Fund is up with another ad as part of its buy in the Wisconsin race hitting Dem U.S. Sen. Tammy Baldwin on transgender issues.

The NRSC and Hovde are up with a new TV ad in which the businessman says he opposes a national abortion ban.

3rd CD Dem candidate Rebecca Cooke in a new ad knocks incumbent U.S. Rep. Derrick Van Orden’s temperament and says the Prairie du Chien Republican supports a “total abortion ban.”

The 30-second ad promotes Wied’s “problem-solving mentality” and mission to secure the southern border, protect Wisconsin seniors and stand up for Wisconsin farmers if elected.
