The Duluth DFL has pulled an TV advertisement that accused incumbent city councilor Jim Stauber of putting up roadblocks to street repair.

According to Deb Taylor, the DFL produced a number of ads for possible airing, the Stauber attack ad included. "Upon reflection, we decided that the Stauber ad was not the direction we wished to go," Taylor said.

Taylor said when the DFL made the decsion to drop it, the ad had already been entered into certain station's schedules.
