Longtime conservative leader, 2014 U.S. Senate nominee, and 2017 Republican candidate for governor Ed Gillespie today launched his second television ad of the gubernatorial campaign. Airing in markets across Virginia, the ad highlights Gillespie’s personal background, experience and commitment to serving as a governor for ALL Virginians.
“In his second TV ad of the campaign, Ed demonstrates for Virginians his focus on putting forward substantive policies that will grow our economy, create new jobs and make life better for ALL Virginians,” said Campaign Manager Chris Leavitt. “While Ralph Northam and Tom Perriello continue to advocate for policies that have held back growth and weakened our economy, Ed will continue delivering a positive, upbeat message in every corner of the Commonwealth.”

Ed Gillespie: I helped author the Contract with America and advised the President. I also grew up in a hard-working family, watching my parents earn whatever we had. I’m Ed Gillespie. I know firsthand how the system works, and I know when it’s not working for middle class families. As governor, I’ll stand up to special interests, eliminate tax breaks for big businesses, simplify our tax code, and cut taxes for families and small businesses. I’ll be a governor for all Virginians.
