Daily Ad Track

Here’s what cut through the clutter today.

Not everyone agreed with us when we declared a spot from former Massachusetts Senate Minority Leader Richard Tisei (R) as one of the best of the cycle. It was a static camera shot of the beach with almost no political messaging beyond his campaign logo. It reminded us of the annual Corona palm tree Christmas ads.

But if you need any better understanding of why we liked that spot, well, we’ll let this 4-year-old Abby do the talking for us.

Montana At-Large

Elsewhere, we have seen millions of ads over the past week embracing the Halloween theme. Here is one from technology executive Steve Daines (R) in his race against state Senate Minority Whip Kim Gillan (D).
