For the past two weeks, the conservative super PAC Vermonters First has been blanketing the airwaves with ads supporting two Republican candidates and opposing single-payer health care.

After exhausting its first $100,000 worth of television spots at the end of this week, the super PAC is coming back for another round. And, this time, it’s extending its reach from your television to your mailbox: The group has sent out new direct mail pieces, which hit the streets Thursday.

According to public records obtained at WCAX-TV, Vermonters First is spending another $47,167 for two more weeks on that station, starting Monday, Sept. 24. That’s slightly more than the $45,390 it spent on the current, expiring round of ads.

  1. I would like to ask Mr. Brooks to follow our lead and declare his donors within 72 hours of receipt of payment. If not, we won’t know who paid him to influence this election until long after the elections are over. This, of course, would be shameless.

  2. Message to Vt. Dem. Party: PLEASE do not do the predictable thing of sending out an hysterical mail and email campaign responding to the above, predicting the end of the world as we know it and begging for money.

  3. I would like to ask Mr. Stannard to dissolve his own Left superpac. You were the first one in Vt., Stannard. You started a Left superpac when there was absolutely, positively NO serious threat from the Right.

  4. For the first time in many years, I will not be voting in Vermont.
    I moved to Texas. Yay for me…Left Taxes for Texas
