People often ask me how I’m different from politicians. Well: 22 years in the Army… My truck is 21-years-old… I don’t trade stocks… And my only home is right here in Charlotte. I’m Tom Barrett and I’ll never let Washington change who I am.

Tom Barrett's kids are exposing his spending habits. 😂 He turns off every light, hunts for every bargain, and drives a car older than they are. Why? Because EVERY dollar counts—and Tom knows Mid-Michigan families feel the same way.

I spent 22 years in the Army defending our American way of life. I know the cost of war. That’s why I broke with my party in June and voted FOUR TIMES to end the Iran war. My opponent, William Lawrence? He called for “destroying the American way of life”. I’ll always defend it. 🇺🇸 Mid-Michigan: Vote Tom Barrett on November 3.

Figures cover domestic political ads paid in dollars, from 4 May 2026. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend at our last pull; ads still running before the vote are counted as of 31 October 2026.
