CARDON RELEASES SENATE AD

posted by Andrea Kelly

Republican Wil Cardon is the second U.S. Senate candidate in Arizona to release a TV advertisement this week, taking the race to the airwaves five months ahead of the primary election.

The open Senate seat, being vacated by Republican Jon Kyl, has drawn interest from both major parties. In the Republican primary, so far Cardon and U.S. Rep. Jeff Flake are competing for the nomination. Democrats Don Bivens, a former state party chairman, and former U.S. Surgeon General Richard Carmona are seeking their party’s nod.

Cardon’s ad is an introduction of him to voters, and says he is “an outsider” who will work to create jobs if elected.

Bivens released his first TV ad yesterday, targeting Flake for his party’s stance on women’s health care issues that have come up in national politics recently.
