Democrat Ann McLane Kuster has released her first television advertisement in her bid to oust Rep. Charles Bass (R) in the 2nd district.

The 30-second spot attempts to emphasize crossover appeal and personal frugality. According to a source, this is “a full buy on WMUR and in Boston.”

This is one of the most hotly contested races in the country. It is a rematch from their 2010 race, when Bass narrowly defeated Kuster. Roll Call rates this race as a Tossup.
