New RAGA ad links Ford's legislative gaffe and college arrest

SHARE
Aaron and Berna

Focus: Aaron Ford, Democratic candidate for attorney general

Who’s paying for it: The Republican Attorney Generals Association

Size of Buy: “Large” six figures

Where it’s running: Las Vegas

When it starts: Oct. 12

The gist: The ad connects two favored attacks against Ford, the state Senate majority leader. It leads off with a clip from the 2017 legislative session in which Ford states that he doesn’t know the state’s definition of “larceny,” and then transitions to recent reports about Ford being arrested in the early 1990s, including once for stealing tires.
