The Progressive Change Campaign Committee is expanding its ad buy for an ad that went up last week urging Wisconsin voters to vote against Gov. Scott Walker in the recall election. PCCC is adding $30,000 to an their previous ad buy of the same amount, allowing them to expand from the Madison TV market to now include Green Bay. The one-minute spot will run in both markets on cable and broadcast, including hits on “The Colbert Report” and the Sunday shows.

The PCCC expects the ad buy to continue to grow depending on online fundraising. The ad, called “Remember. Recall.,” features Wisconsinites from the protests at the capital last winter explaining why they want to recall Walker. The recall election is set for June 5, when Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett will try to unseat Walker.
