Latino Victory Fund, House Majority PAC team up for six-figure ad buy backing Debbie Mucarsel-Powell

The Latino Victory Fund and House Majority PAC are launching a six-figure Spanish-language radio ad buy looking to boost Debbie Mucarsel-Powell‘s reelection bid in Florida’s 26th Congressional District.

“The new radio ad ‘Más Trabajo, Menos Politiquería’ highlights Debbie Mucarsel-Powell’s immigrant roots and her support for working families and small businesses disproportionately impacted by COVID-19,” reads a release on the new ad campaign.

The groups are also targeting Mucarsel-Powell’s Republican opponent, current Miami-Dade Mayor Carlos Giménez. It criticizes the Mayor’s decision to extend a contract at Miami International Airport with Munilla Construction Management (MCM). MCM was one of the firms behind the FIU bridge that collapsed and killed six people.

The Miami-Dade County Commission also approved extending that airport contact with MCM.

“While Carlos Giménez has been looking out for himself and the special interests, Congresswoman Debbie Mucarsel-Powell has been a strong advocate in Congress for Miami-Dade’s working families and small businesses,” said Abby Curran Horrell, the House Majority PAC’s executive director.

She's doing fine with the English television ads. But to win this race she needs to chip away at the Hispanic vote.

Difficult district because it includes part of Miami, all of the Everglades, and all of the Keys. So basically there has to be some targeting to Homestead and Key West also, along with the south sections of Miami.
