Eric Hovde Launches First TV Ad in Wisconsin Senate Race
Republican candidate Eric Hovde begins a seven-figure ad campaign, aiming to challenge Democratic Sen. Tammy Baldwin in a critical race for Senate control.
- Eric Hovde, a multimillionaire businessman and Republican Senate candidate, has launched his first television ad as part of a statewide campaign.
- The ad campaign, valued in the seven figures, will feature multiple spots over the next month, signaling a significant investment in the race.
- Hovde's ad focuses on national issues such as the economy, crime, health care, and 'open borders,' but does not mention his opponent Tammy Baldwin or the state of Wisconsin.
- Democratic Sen. Tammy Baldwin, who is seeking a third term, has not yet run an ad for the upcoming election, despite announcing her reelection bid nearly a year ago.
- The outcome of this race is pivotal for both parties, with Democrats defending 23 Senate seats in November, compared to 11 for the Republicans, in a bid to maintain majority control.
