TV ads flood GOP governor race in Columbia area
The Republican primary campaign for governor features TV ads from four of seven candidates. Charlie Condon, Bob Peeler, Mark Sanford and Ken Wingate all press their cases from living rooms and trucks as they race to Georgia with air time costs cited. Sanford plans over $40,000 in late ads. Wingate has raised $250,000 to Sanford’s $1.8 million. Suther land and Branton have yet to buy airtime. Political experts urge clear messages and issue focus while personal appearances remain valued in campaign strategy.
