Philadelphia Inquirer | 08/24/2006 | Casey rolls out statewide ads
WASHINGTON - Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum has set the bar high as his Democratic challenger, Bob Casey, finally joins him in running statewide television ads.
Santorum’s ads - like the lighthearted one that shows him on a dance floor - have apparently helped him close what had been a double-digit gap by his opponent. Casey hopes his ads can be at least as effective.
The Casey campaign begins airing its first statewide TV ad today, a spot which has already run in Pittsburgh and is intended to introduce the Democratic Senate candidate to voters.
Casey’s initial ad buy is $300,000, Casey campaign spokesman Larry Smar said. It will run in every media market in Pennsylvania, he said.
The only TV station in the Philadelphia area will be WFMZ, which is Channel 69, based in Allentown and Reading.
