Clinton ads to air in Iowa, N.H. during GOP debate

Hillary Clinton’s campaign will release a new group of ads in Iowa on New Hampshire Wednesday night to air during the third Republican debate.

The ads are all of a similar format, featuring an “everyday American” woman at her job and a Clinton voiceover. One ad features a woman pulling longer hours to earn the same as her ale co-worker, another shows a kindergarten teacher setting up her classroom and one shows a young professional fraught with student loans.

“Mindy will work 179 shifts to earn what the average CEO makes in a single day,” Clinton says in the final ad featuring a healthcare professional. “Join the fight for higher incomes, join the fight for Mindy.”

The 30-second cable and broadcast ad buys are more personal than most of the ads the Clinton campaign has released thus far, but unlike other advertisements, the Democratic front-runner doesn’t appear in any of the videos.

Clinton’s videos come just days after the Iowa Democratic Party Jefferson-Jackson dinner, where she painted herself as a “fighter,” as she often does in her stump speech.

She told Iowans, “So I want you to know, I’m listening to you, I’m fighting for you … for the struggling, the striving, and the successful. I’m fighting for everyone who’s ever been knocked down, but refused to be knocked out.”
