In 1636 they threw Roger Williams out for refusing to go along. He founded Providence. His idea stands on top of our State House. What would he think if he came down today? The dark mills. The kids told the smartest move is to leave. The energy bills. The roads. Watch what he sees. Rhode Island didn’t start by going along. It started by refusing to. It’s time to find our independent streak again. Early voting starts October 14. Election Day is November 3. Smallest State. Biggest Spine.

There are a lot of new people following this campaign since our primary victory, so I want to take a moment to reintroduce what Rhode Island First actually means. Rhode Island First has been the foundation of this campaign from day one. It means that when I go to Washington, every decision starts with one question: How does this help the people of Rhode Island? It means bringing good paying jobs back to our state so our children and grandchildren don’t have to leave Rhode Island to build a f

A 27 year old democratic socialist just beat the mayor of Providence. David Morales took 53 percent to Brett Smiley's 46, about 1,700 votes. Smiley outspent him better than three to one and burned a good chunk of it on ads calling Morales soft on police. It didn't work. First sitting mayor in the history of Providence to lose a primary. Now, the easy post here is to tell you to be afraid of the word socialism. I'm not going to do that, because it would let every person in Rhode Island politics

Westerly, September 24th. I'll be there and I am inviting you to be there too. The Republican Party of Westerly asked me to keynote Cocktails with the Candidates as the primary winner for CD2. I said yes before they finished the sentence. Why? Partly because I'm honored, but mostly because I get a chance to meet and speak directly with you…the voter. Here's the math nobody in Providence wants to say out loud. There are not enough Republicans in this state to win a congressional seat. Not clos

He knows what it means to serve, to lead, and to put something bigger than yourself first. Now, he’s ready to bring that same commitment to Rhode Island. Our state deserves leadership grounded in discipline, hard work, and service. He served his country. Now he wants to serve Rhode Island. If you are Republican or unaffiliated, you can vote in the Republican primary. Voting is underway now through September 9. Vote Vic Mellor for Congress. Rhode Island First 🇺🇸

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.
