Fact check: First television spot in the US Senate primary
Friday, November 6th, 2009 by Michael C. BenderUPDATE: First Democratic ad, released in April, is here
In what could be the first television ad of the 2010 U.S. Senate Republican primary, Club for Growth, the conservative group that helped take down the Republican candidate in an upstate New York Congressional race, has unveiled a new television spot aimed at Republican Gov. Charlie Crist, who is facing a primary challenge from former House Speaker Marco Rubio.
The club has not officially picked sides in the race, but this is clearly the strongest signal of several in recent months that they favor Rubio. The group could provide Rubio a needed boost in fundraising against Crist.
The group said the 30-second spot “will air soon on Florida television stations.”
Fact check after the jump.
