Ken Buck on a roll?
U.S. Senate candidate Ken Buck appears to be on a roll. His campaign says a conservative group, Americans for Job Security, will start a $300,000 ad campaign for Buck this week through April 23, reports Allison Sherry. And South Carolina’s conservative Senator Jim DeMent will hold a conference call with Buck and reporters Wednesday to announce his Senate Conservatives Fund will support Buck in his primary contest with Jane Norton and Tom Wiens. DeMent is raising funds to support the conservative candidates he endorses. Earlier in the campaign, Taxpayers for Liberty poured money into another controversial ad campaign for Buck that attacked Norton.
Do the new endorsements by AJS and DeMint mean that he had a strong first quarter of fundraising? He told me last week that he’ll announce his results Thursday. Don’t be surprised if the announcement is made tomorrow.
