The following press release was sent out yesterday, Sept. 18, from the Moffitt campaign:

ASHEVILLE - Representative Tim Moffitt (NC116) will release the first television ad of his reelection campaign tomorrow, highlighting his Buncombe County roots and record on job creation and tax reduction. The 30 second ad is titled “Where I Came From.”

The theme of the commercial is summed up best with Moffitt’s own words: “I’ve always said the best way to keep politicians from wasting your money, is to make sure that more of it stays in your wallet.”

And Moffitt just released a sneak peek of this new commercial on his Facebook page at: Facebook.com/Tim.Moffitt.NC116.
