DCCC Releases First TV Ad in NC-11: “Barn Dance”

The DCCC released a new TV ad in the race for North Carolina’s 11th Congressional District, “Barn Dance,” highlighting Jamie Ager’s commitment to bringing Western North Carolina culture to Congress.

At “a good mountain hoedown” at his farm, Ager speaks about his plans to take on cost-raising corporations taking advantage of North Carolina, and to fight for Hurricane Helene recovery funding. Meanwhile, Jennifer Balkcom takes money from the utility companies and votes to allow them to jack up energy costs.

The ad – the first to run in NC-11 from the DCCC and Ager for Congress campaign – is airing in the Asheville media market beginning today and is part of the committee’s coordinated spending in key battleground districts.

“Barn Dance”

Transcript:

“Do you know what we need more of in Washington, DC? Barn dances!

I’m Jamie Ager, and Amy and I host these every month. 

Politicians just dance with the lobbyists. But I’ll take a good mountain hoedown any day. 

In Congress I’ll invest in Western North Carolina again by taking on corporate greed that raises our costs. And I’ll fight for our Helene recovery funds.

I approved this message because it’s time we turn things around.”
