Hillary Clinton has launched a series of television ads in Florida, Ohio, Virginia, Nevada, Colorado, North Carolina and New Hampshire, focusing on her commitment to fighting for children and families.
The two ads, titled “Always” and “Quiet Moments,” detail the presumptive Democratic nominee’s history of working with children, from her time at the Children’s Defense Fund following law school to her work as first lady to pass the Children’s Health Insurance Program.
“Through the years there have been challenges, setbacks. But for Hillary one thing has never changed, helping children has been a cause of her life and it always will be,” the narrator says in “Always.”
The ads are a part of an eight-figure, six-week television buy, and also include the previously announced ad “Who We Are,” which contrasts Clinton’s policies with Donald Trump’s. The Clinton campaign said that the television buy “will lay out the choice voters face in this election between Hillary Clinton who has spent her life fighting for families and children and Donald Trump who has always put himself first.”
The ad comes as recent polls show Clinton gaining an edge over Trump in the general election, with the most recent CBS poll showing her leading Trump 43-37.
