Scope and Contents

In the 1996 political TV ad, John Thune is depicted misleadingly linking his opponent, Democratic candidate Rick Weiland, to the mafia in several scenes. Additionally, Thune is portrayed negatively amidst controversies over Medicare cuts and questionable political tactics, positioning him in an unflattering light throughout the ad.
