Lindsey Graham wouldn’t let me into his open to the public meeting because he knows I would have asked the tough questions. Graham is a spineless Senator who has never once put South Carolina first. He’s afraid of me because I’m on the ground attending community events, church services, and talking to folks about my plans to protect their healthcare, uplift rural communities, fund public education, and more. It’s time South Carolina elects a Senator who shows up, listens, and reflects their constituents. Will you pitch in $5 to my campaign today?

Standout elementBold cyan-and-white 'HI IT'S BRANDON' subtitle overlay filmed outside Graham's town hall with a Lindsey Graham yard sign visible in the background
TacticThe ad uses a guerrilla, man-on-the-street confrontation tactic β€” being literally turned away at Graham's door β€” to paint the incumbent as secretive and cowardly while positioning Brown as a scrappy, accessible challenger.
