State Rep. Gino Bulso has fired the first tv salvo in the 7th District Special Election.  His first television ad, “Warrior,” underscoring his record in the Tennessee General Assembly began airing Wednesday.

The ad highlights Gino’s leadership on the Trump Act to prevent criminal illegal immigrants from accessing taxpayer dollars and banning sanctuary cities, stopping the Chinese Communist Party from buying Tennessee farmland, and protecting girls’ and women’s sports.

“I’m Gino Bulso and I’m the Trump conservative running for Congress. In the legislature, I led the charge for the Trump Act preventing criminal illegals from getting your tax dollars and banning sanctuary cities. I stopped the Chinese Communist Party from buying our farmland and fought to keep biological men out of women’s sports and locker rooms. President Trump’s warrior approach is saving America. I’m Gino Bulso and I approve this message because I’m ready to Fight, Fight, Fight,”Bulso says in the ad.

The Bulso campaign says the release of “Warrior” marks another milestone in a race where Gino has already surged into a statistical tie for first place, according to a new poll released by Americans for Prosperity earlier this week.

“From day one, our campaign has been powered by America First conservatives across Tennessee who believe in President Trump’s agenda. I am grateful for their support and proud to stand with them as we fight for Tennessee values,” Gino said in releasing the ad.

Recent endorsements from State Rep. Jay Reedy and NASCAR Hall of Famer Darrell Waltrip have fueled the campaign’s momentum. Both cited Gino’s commitment to secure the border, defend parental rights, and protect girls’ sports.

Early voting in the special election begins on September 17 with the primary election date being October 7. The general election occur on December 2.
