- Description:
- The 1988 political TV ad for Helen Iphegenia Barnhill criticizes opponent Congressman Jim Moody for his poor attendance record in Congress. Featuring somber visuals of Moody looking concerned and regretful, the ad emphasizes his frequent absences with imagery of an empty chair and a graph of missed votes. Voice-overs and on-screen text highlight Moody's absenteeism, connecting it to issues affecting voters, depicted by a concerned elderly couple. The ad positions Barnhill as the more reliable choice.
