Dunn becomes first GOP CD2 candidate on TV

Aubrey Dunn became today the first Republican 2nd Congressional District candidate to air television ads, and he’s starting with a 30-second spot that introduces him to voters.

Here’s the ad:

It’s currently running on two network television stations based in Roswell and on cable television throughout the district.

The ad begins with Dunn talking about how he’s a workaholic and a rancher. He talks about “hard work and character and honesty” as values his father taught him, and says America needs to work on ways to strengthen families.

Democratic 2nd District candidate Harry Teague has been on the air for almost two weeks, but Dunn is the first GOP candidate on the air. Republican candidate Ed Tinsley has ordered $320,000 worth of ads in the Albuquerque television market to run in May but, as of March 31, Tinsley had not paid for that advertising, according to the first-quarter report he filed with the Federal Election Commission.
