It costs up to $3 million to run one ad.
John,
Our race could be one of the most expensive House races of 2022. Here’s why:
- Here in the L.A. media market, TV advertisements cost A LOT. This is the second most expensive market in the country, and it’s 16x more expensive than Katie’s home state of Iowa. It costs up to $3 million just to run one TV ad. Because Orange County is a media desert (meaning we have very few local papers) we rely on buying TV time to reach voters.
- Our district contains an equal number of Democrats and Republicans, so in order to win we need to persuade swing voters. And that’s expensive. It’s said that it takes 12 mail pieces to persuade one voter.
Ever since the Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision allowed corporations to flood our political system with money, elections have gotten more and more expensive. We have to be prepared to defend Katie against attack ads run by conservative super PACs.
Can you make a donation so that we have the resources to win in this particularly expensive race?
