Political ad attacking "dark money" funding Texas Proposition

In Austin, Texas, there is a proposition on the ballot to allow for a third party audit of the City of Austin's massive budget. Opponents of the proposition face an uphill battle trying to convince the 81% of Austin residents who support the proposition that it is a bad idea.

In a last ditch effort, they have decided to zero in on the "dark money" interests groups that funded the proposition, including the Koch brothers and my former employers, the Texas Public Policy Foundation, who have been suing the city of Austin left and right for years.

The resulting ad is pretty funny for our class's purpose.
