Minnesotans better listen carefully if they want to hear the DNC ad calling for Republican Norm Coleman to concede. A source with knowledge of the buy say it will run on two stations, KSTP-AM and AM950. The DNC bought 4 spots on at KSTP-AM at a cost of $850. Here are the details on when they'll run:

4/16 5 AM - 10 AM - 1 spot

4/16 3 PM - 7PM - 1 spot

4/17 5AM - 10 AM - 1 spot

4/17 3 PM - 7PM - 1 spot

The source with knowledge of the buy said they may run additional ads next week if Coleman doesn't concede.

UPDATE: A source with knowledge of the ad buy says the buy on AM950 (Air America station) is much bigger but wouldn't say how much bigger.
