Congressional Candidate Rudy Moise Launches New Ad

Rudy Moise, running in a crowded Democratic primary to replace U.S. Rep. Kendrick Meek in Congress, has launchedhis first television ad. The winner of the Aug. 24 primary will face an independent in November; no Republican candidate made the final ballot.

The ad focuses on Rudys experience caring for patients and creating jobs as a successful physician, wrote Anastasia Apa, Moises campaign manager, in a release announcing the new ad. The new ad also highlights Rudys support from real people who live in District 17.

Facing a field of officeholders, the ad plays up what makes Moise different -- his background as a doctor, showing him with numerous patients. If Apa and the Moise team were looking toshow their candidateto bea political outsider while also playing up his ties to the community and the people in the district, they did exactly that. In a year when Florida is being bombarded by political ads, this one is different -- and effective.
