Vote No Campaign Targets Issue 2 in TV Ads
The Vote No campaign funded by labor and education groups plans $200,000 in TV spots against Issue 2, depicting a fat cat siphoning money from taxpayers. Opposition ads are financed by Mary Boyle’s Senate bid, J Kenneth Blackwell’s campaign, and the National Taxpayers Union while spokesman Brian Rothenberg notes continued outreach. Analysts say ads may plant doubts as voters grow confused.
