Cindy Hyde Smith for US Senate

ad creative

EDITORIAL/Republican imposter

The fact that Sen. Hyde-Smith’s challenger is a former Democrat from Illinois should raise serious concerns for conservative voters in Mississippi

Ad copy

"A Republican primary in Mississippi is ultimately about trust, and trust is built over time, not imported at the last minute. The fact that U.S. Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith’s challenger is a former Democrat from Illinois should therefore raise serious concerns for conservative voters."
