GOP gubernatorial candidate Tim Michels released a new ad this week in which he promises to “stop the madness.” No information was provided regarding the ad buy, however according to data collected by AdImpact, Michels and his backers have more than $7.7 million in paid media reserved through Election Day. That’s in contrast to the more than $12 million Evers and his allies have reserved for the final two weeks of the race. In the ad, Michels claims Evers has released Wisconsin’s worst criminals, killed jobs, paid people not to work, and let “so much go up in flames.”
