WASHINGTON TWP., N.J. — Steve Lonegan is on the air for the 3 1/2 weeks of Primary 2018. Or at least that’s the plan according to his campaign.
The 5th Congressional District Republican candidate’s 30-second spot “highlights Mayor Lonegan’s conservative credentials and his support for President Trump’s agenda,” according to his congressional campaign’s accompanying press release.
Lonegan’s press team did not immediately respond to a request for comment as to whether this is a cable or network ad buy.
