Jeb Bush Campaign Cuts Ad Buys, Sends Staff to New Hampshire
- 8 years ago
Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush's campaign is reallocating resources for the tumultuous final weeks before voters go to the polls in Iowa and New Hampshire.
Amid a tight fundraising climate for Bush, who is still struggling in the polls, Bush is canceling $3 million in television ads scheduled to run in January in Iowa and South Carolina and devoting most of the resources to bolstering his lagging effort in New Hampshire, where Bush is facing increasing pressure from Marco Rubio, Chris Christie, and John Kasich.
The focus on New Hampshire, where the campaign is also shifting the timing of some television buys, reflects an all-in strategy by Bush on the Granite State, which is where establishment-friendly Republicans are battling it out for the mantle of challenger to Ted Cruz and Donald Trump.
