McAuliffe Campaign Releases New Ad Highlighting Education Plans

Today, gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe released a new television advertisement highlighting his ideas for getting all Virginia's children on a path to success.

"Did you know we use the failure rate of third graders to help predict how many prison spots Virginia will need in 15 years?" says McAuliffe in the ad. "As Governor I'll invest in early education, reduce class sizes and invest in teacher pay because the future of our children and our Commonwealth start right here."

The ad, "Right Here," will run on stations in the Richmond, Norfolk and Roanoke media markets. It can be viewed here.
