DCCC to run ads to counter Freedom's Watch

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee Independent Expenditure announced Wednesday that it would be countering ads from conservative advocacy group Freedom's Watch run in Ohio against Franklin Co. Commissioner Mary Jo Kilroy (D-Columbus), running in the 15th district, and state Sen. John Boccieri (D-Alliance), running in the 16th district.

The DCCC announcement says that Freedom's Watch "has put more deceptive radio ads on the air as part of the shady, soft money group’s plan to try to defeat Democratic congressional candidates."

The announcement also says that Freedom's Watch is "operating as the cash-strapped NRCC’s de facto independent expenditure campaign."
