HERE'S ONE COUNTY DEC TAKING TO THE AIRWAVES

The Seminole County Democratic Executive Committee has produced a television ad which will be airing this week on cable systems in Orange, Osceola, and Seminole counties...an interesting move considering that less than one-third of all registered voters in Seminole are Democrats.

The 30-second ad, titled "I Am A Democrat", does not promote specific candidates, but is intended to help the party's image and encourage like-minded viewers to get involved. Details were not made available, but the Seminole DEC is spending part of the $30,000 it has raised during the past year on the effort.

County DEC Chair Carol Cox also is founder/CEO of DemsLink, an online campaign service which helped produce the advertisment. She told the Orlando Sentinel political blog Central Florida Political Pulse that she is hoping to provide the spot to other local DECs.
