![["Mike Ward's 1996 campaign ad portrays his opponent, Ann Northup, as a supporter of controversial Medicare cuts, linking her policies to tax breaks for the wealthy. The ad strategically uses worried expressions and negative imagery to emphasize Northup's association with these unpopular cuts, casting her in a negative light while underlining the political debate over Medicare funding."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Julian%20P.%20Kanter%20Political%20Commercials%20Collection,%201942-2016/United%20States%20House%20of%20Representatives%20Offices%20Campaign%20Ads,%201963-2016/P-1413-66160_thumbnail.jpg "1996 - United States House of Representatives Offices and Issue Campaigns - Ward Michael Delavan (Mike) - \"Medicare II\"")
