7th District: Joe Walsh Campaign Hires Media Consultant

Jamestown Associates Boasts Impressive Campaign Win Rate

Lake Zurich, IL — The Joe Walsh for Congress campaign has hired Jamestown Associates of Princeton, New Jersey to provide consulting and media services in Walsh’s race for the 8th Congressional District seat currently held by Rep. Melissa Bean.

Jamestown Associates is responsible for more primary wins for Republican candidates than virtually any firm in the country, including a 7-way 2008 primary in New Jersey CD07 and a primary against an incumbent in Maryland CD01. Jamestown will be providing strategic counsel to the Walsh campaign as well as producing television, radio, direct mail, and Internet advertising.

Candidate Walsh says of his new advisors, “I am absolutely thrilled to be working with the team at Jamestown Associates. Like the rest of the 8th District, I’ve had enough of business as usual in Washington, and the folks at Jamestown understand our message and have produced some incredibly compelling messaging. I’m convinced that they can do what it takes to make sure our “had enough!” message is heard and delivered in a meaningful way in this race.”

According to Ken Kurson, Executive Vice President at Jamestown, “I grew up a couple towns over from the 8th Congressional District and I know the area very well. After careful consideration, I am convinced that Joe Walsh has the ideas, the energy, and the base of support to win a spirited Republican primary and unseat Melissa Bean, who has become little more than a rubber stamp for Nancy Pelosi’s high-spending, high-taxing Washington ways.”
