NASHVILLE - Tennessee Republican gubernatorial candidates Diane Black and Randy Boyd are slamming each other in new television ads as the four-person GOP primary barrels toward the start of early voting on July 13.
And negative attack flyers are now landing in voters' mailboxes, too.
The air and mail wars began in earnest for the Aug. 2 primary after Boyd, a Knoxville businessman and former state economic and community development chief, was hit earlier this week by U.S. Rep. Black's campaign in an ad questioning his support of President Donald Trump.
Now Boyd is up with his own 30-second spot returning the favor with an ad titled "D.C. Diane." It features footage of the Gallatin congressman being interviewed with several colleagues by journalist Katie Couric during the 2016 campaign.
