Fischer launching his first TV spot
Democrat Greg Fischer will begin airing his first TV ad on Saturday in the race for his party's nomination for U.S. Senate.
A news release from Fischer's campaign said the 30-second introductory spot, titled "The Promise," will air statewide.
"I strongly believe that people are looking for somebody who's not part of the system—because the system is broken," the Louisville businessman says in the ad. "I think people need to say ‘we’ve had enough of this and we need to get our country back.'"
Fischer began a three-week tour of the state on Monday. The primary election is May 20.
Front-runner Bruce Lunsford, also a Louisville businessman, began airing ads on April 4. Five other lesser-known Democrats are also vying for the spot to challenge Republican U.S. Sen. Mitch McConnell in the November general election.

Finally, a candidate who is a realistic alternative to McConnell.

Awesome ad. Very real and sincere. I've found my candidate for U.S. Senate.
