After officials from the Minnesota State Fair objected to the Bachmann campaign's unauthorized use of their logo in the new ad out today, the Bachmann camp is going to pull the logo. In a press release, they say:
Earlier today Bachmann for Congress released a television advertisement coinciding with the Minnesota State Fair. While our attorneys advise us we have a legal right to use the State Fair logo, Bachmann for Congress has decided to swap it for a more generic icon.
The ad argues that Clark voted to raise taxes on a number of State Fair food items. The Clark campaign offered their Fact Check disputing these claims.
Watch for a PoliGraph post soon that looks at both Bachmann and Clark's arguments.
