WASHINGTON, D.C. – RGA Right Direction PAC today launched a new ad in the Louisiana gubernatorial general election, “Kingmaker.”
The 30-second ad will air on television and digital platforms statewide with a significant investment.
“Kingmaker” exposes the sweetheart deal Shawn Wilson handed out to Democrat mega-donor Jim Bernhard. Instead of choosing the most qualified bidder, Wilson chose to line the pockets of special interests.
“Shawn Wilson expects Louisianans to trust him to run the entire state when they couldn’t even trust him to run the Department of Transportation. Shawn Wilson may be good at rigging contracts, but he’d be a disaster for the state,” said Courtney Alexander, RGA National Press Secretary.
