Four well-researched ads for use in Congressional campaigning

[neiljwollman]

Here is a letter I distributed very widely to Democrats regarding a series of political ads I worked on with a video pro-- and with a local actor narrating the ads. It has gotten very good responses. If you are so moved, any posting to social media or otherwise distributing to friends/colleagues/political folks is appreciated. Thanks, Neil
==============================================================================
We have created four 32-37 second video spots, for anyone's use, that are intended to motivate Democrats/swing voters/Independents to vote in the fall Congressional elections. Each video focuses on a different issue, but all highlight the dangers of Republican control of Congress, based principally on actual statements/actions of Republican politicians. They urge viewers not to sit out the election and to vote Democratic.

Please use these video spots however you see fit. Besides use in traditional media, the links below allow you to view, download, and then post to social media with whatever introductory words fit your situation. You can edit the videos if you wish, and even attach a segment relevant to your local, state, or national context (for those unsure on how to go from the links to post on social media, there are simple instructions at the bottom here for Facebook and Twitter).

(Note that we include a slightly modified alternative version for one of the videos if Democrats pass drug price reduction legislation.)

Please tell us if/how you use any of these video spots (e.g., on social or traditional media, for state party work, or for a particular candidate) and we welcome feedback.

Good luck,
Neil, Luigi, and Chris
