Missouri Lt. Gov. candidate Susan Montee releases TV ad

Democrat Susan Montee is starting her first TV ad in the Missouri lieutenant governor campaign.

The ad focuses on advocating for military veterans and their families. Montee said veterans should be confident they will have a home, quality health care, and a job.

Montee is a former state auditor who lost re-election in 2010. She is challenging Republican Lt. Gov. Peter Kinder, who is seeking a rare third term.
