NorCo: Why Brown Must Go, in 40 Seconds



This startlingly effective video message, released early on Sunday, has had 10,500 views in one day. A similar NorCo GOP ad, posted to Facebook on October 27, has had just 5,700 views over nine days.

Win or lose, Democratic messaging has been better this election cycle.

Updated 7:00 pm: As of  7 pm today, this video is up to 18,808 hits on Facebook. The GOP video, which has been up ten times as long, has just 6,300 hits. .

    I don’t think Northampton County people are blind deaf nor stupid and I think they can see through
    the fake news John Brown Adds that were thrown together by a 13year old on a computer.

  6. The race is going to be very close, and it all boils down to turnout. If 20% of the Dems vote, compared to 25% of the Rs four years ago, expect history to repeat itself.

  7. O'Hare How on God's green earth are you claiming 10,500 views?

    I did a copy paste of the URL and it shows the number of views as 138 and three of those are me checking the number.

    I understand your need to believe in your candidates and their efforts but 10,500 - please!

  10. Facebook ads bought and paid for. Autoplay. No one is volunteering to watching it. Facebook views are counted after 3 seconds of viewing. People just can't click fast enough to turn it off.

  11. Facebook ads do not create the hits. People watching do. Just think. In one day, twice as many views as the GOP ad in nine days. But you don't have to worry. Your polls show a sweep.

  16. Professional polls???

  17. Great video, not going to happen. R’s in a landslide!

  18. Agreed with 1:16's link and analysis. The disparity between the D's ad and the R's ad is most likely about more dollars invested in ad buying vs organic clicks. The key is the target demographic.

  19. Where do you find these polls???

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
