Republican Senate candidate Wil Cardon launched his first TV ad Tuesday with a 30-second spot portraying himself as a conservative political outsider who will create jobs.

“It’s time for an outsider that will fight for a new direction,” says Cardon in the ad.

That's not exactly a record I would brag about in a state with the population of 6,482,505. Even if he created 999 jobs (the highest you could create and still be 'hundreds of jobs') that would mean enough jobs to impact 0.0154107092859936% of the people who live in Arizona.
