Independent groups increasingly control the poster campaigns
Soon the airwaves and in the towns of Waterbury and Danbury, Connecticut are indications who dream as a freshman Democrat: Sierra Club spots praising clean air the voice of Rep. Jim Maloney.
But the campaign Maloney is less enthusiastic and positive about advertising scheduled for 5 Boroughs again this month.
“It ensures that all types of problems,” said Doug Dodson, director of campaign Maloney knew nothing about the ads. “You have a message, if you want to work, and an independent group, and their message is the message . We would be better if they could not do. ”
Maloney’s frustration had little or no impact on the environment influential group. The spots are part of $ 6 million years of efforts by choice that Sierra Club has launched to inform voters on the registers of the incumbent and positions of challengers.
The messages, such as the one who is in the air Maloney’s circle of wealthy Fairfield County-necked blue-Meriden, emphasis will be placed on the local impact of clean air legislation. They call voters, members of Congress regional body to indicate that, already on the good work.
This announcement is the 1998 version, the phenomenon that has swept the nation during the election cycle of 1996, as labour, business and ideological groups have spent millions of dollars in ads, criticizing a candidate or an attack up on the outcome of the vote.
Thanks to a 1976 decision of Supreme Court, these organizations are operating licence free of limiting campaign spending and disclosure rules for the source of its capabilities, as it has never explicitly said “voice” or “against - vote “a candidate.
This year, independent groups are planning to spend even more ads in question, as indicated in the past - indeed a phenomenon that seems likely to transform the political landscape constantly.
“I think that is an integral part of American policy,” said Tom Allen Czech, D-Maine, a freshman in 1996, took advantage of the AFL-CIO ads attacking his GOP opponents, then set up James B . Longley.
But advertising third parties, the organizations say, is designed to educate voters, is too in the reversal of competition policy and conditions of the campaign decisions in the hands of candidates.
All messages are likely to be friendly to incumbents such as the Sierra Club’s. In Idaho’s 2 District, Republican front-runners Mike Simpson expects an influx of messages of the exhibition, by its very firm and public resistance against the borders of three years, two clauses in the house.
The Simpson explains the ad-sponsorship seems to be in a form of political blackmail. “She said:” Sign the [term borders] pledged or we do, “said Simpson.
U.S. Term Limits and Americans for limited work on ads in the general air in the territory before the May 26 primary school. Indeed, Americans for a limited number of targeted conditions are not candidates in about 15 districts in May and June as part of $ 6.5 million for a campaign for candidates to sign their pledge to serve a limited number of terms (two in the Senate, three in the House).
