Republican Group Launching Ad Buy Before April 2nd Election

Thursday, March 28th, 2019 -- 8:47 AM

(AP) -A Republican group is launching a statewide television ad buy a week before the April 2 election to boost Wisconsin Supreme Court candidate Brian Hagedorn.

The Republican State Leadership Committee’s Judicial Fairness Initiative announced Tuesday it was spending at least $1 million on the effort, which includes spending on mailings, radio and ads that will run digitally, on cable and broadcast television. As of last week, outside spending had been overwhelmingly in favor of Hagedorn’s opponent Lisa Neubauer. The Wisconsin Democracy Campaign estimated that Neubauer benefited from 14-times more in outside spending than Hagedorn, or $1.2 million to about $87,000.

Neubauer is supported by liberals and donations from labor unions have helped fuel her edge over Hagedorn in fundraising. She raised about $1.7 million to date compared with about $1.3 million for Hagedorn.
