Tarkanian launches family-focused first ad of general election
Focus: Danny Tarkanian, the Republican candidate in Nevada's 3rd Congressional District
Who's paying for it: Tarkanian's campaign and the Nevada Republican Party. It was produced in "conjunction" with the National Republican Congressional Committee.
Size of buy: Unknown
When it starts: Sept. 12
Where it's running: Las Vegas
The gist: Featuring his four children, family pug "Jake" and his wife Amy, the lighthearted ad features Tarkanian spelling out his campaign promises including congressional term limits and school choice amid scenes of day-to-day life including a basketball game, a family dinner and a trip to the fridge for orange juice.
It's Tarkanian's first ad ahead of the general election, where he'll face off against Democratic candidate Susie Lee. The campaign also produced a slightly longer version of the ad that will run digitally.
Disclosure: Susie Lee has donated to The Nevada Independent. You can see a full list of donors here.
