Enviro PSC candidate Steve Oppenheimer joins TV airwaves

You don't hear much about the Georgia Public Service Commission. That's a shame.
The five-member, quasi-judicial state agency regulates Georgia's utilities and decides how much you pay to turn on your lights and heat up your stove. It's a full-time job (or is supposed to be) and pays a six-figure salary.
And this year voters will decide whether Chuck Eaton and Stan Wise, two incumbent Republican commissioners, stay in office or get sent home.
Steve Oppenheimer, the Democratic candidate vying to unseat Eaton, is the first candidate in the General Election that we've seen who's released a TV ad.
The campaign says it's made targeted media buys throughout middle and south Georgia — as well as in Athens and metro Atlanta, where Eaton and Oppenheimer live.
