Jeff Atwater Plays Up Fiscal Conservatism in New Web Ad

Florida CFO Jeff Atwater released a Web ad on Thursday, highlighting his efforts on economic matters and transparency. Atwater holds a large lead in the polls over Democratic challenger William Rankin and ignores his foe in the new ad to focus on talking about economic opportunity and growth.

"Jeff Atwater has been keeping promises and getting the job done for Floridians," said Brian Hughes, a spokesman for Atwater, on Thursday. "The pledge is Jeff's commitment to never stop standing up for Florida's taxpayers and consumers. When they need someone on their side, Jeff Atwater will always be there."
