The Senate Leadership Fund’s first TV ad in the Wisconsin race hits U.S. Sen. Tammy Baldwin, D-Madison, as “extreme” while focusing on transgender issues.
The narrator in the spot says after 25 years in DC, Baldwin’s “values are more Washington than Wisconsin.” The narrator says she supported providing puberty blockers and sex change surgeries to minor children and forcing women’s domestic violence shelters to admit biological men.
The narrator concludes the spot, “After decades in Washington, she’s too extreme for Wisconsin.”
The SLF said it plans to spend $17 million on ads in the Wisconsin race, and AdImpact had picked up $13.8 million in broadcast, cable and radio reservations as of early this afternoon.
