Candidates are increasingly using YouTube, the popular video sharing website, to post advertisements that convey their political messages. Of the 20 candidates that LCV endorses, 12 of them use this online outlet to post ads that are accessible to an international audience.
Of the 12 who use YouTube to post general advertisements, half voice a pro-environment message! Six of our 20 mention their political stances in favor of eliminating America's reliance on foreign oil, taking care of natural resources, and using clean renewable energy to power the nation.
Mark Udall, in his ad "Stand", which aired on May 14th in Colorado, took a full spot to promote his energy solutions. To view video: http://youtube.com/watch?v=ZB41EcFGTUo
This trend is allowing citizens beyond the state and district voters to watch these ads and to understand the candidates' commitments to the environment.
