Sen Tammy Baldwin hits back at GOP opponent's Clinton comparison: 'Actually called you deplorable'

"Do you know who actually called you deplorable? This guy, Eric Hovde," a new digital ad from Baldwin's campaign said.

"Most of the country, sadly, doesn't know what the heck is going on," he said at the time. "They can't even tell you when our country was founded, who the vice president [sic], how many senators there are. It's just deplorable how low people are keeping themselves informed."

Hovde added, "I like to say, sadly, with females, they spend too much time with what's going on in Hollywood. And with males, they engross themselves too much with sports. And now it's not just sports, it's fantasy sports."

The new Baldwin ad criticized the past remarks, asking, "Too much sports?"

"Eric Hovde really doesn't know Wisconsin. Too much time in California," it continued. 

Baldwin's latest ad is part of a multi-million dollar advertising campaign.

Hovde's campaign did not provide comment to Fox News Digital in time for publication.

"Donald Trump might be one of the most offensive, hateful and unacceptable presidential candidates we've ever had. So what does that say about the people who support him?" Baldwin said in the ad, which was from a 2016 speech she made. 

Baldwin has tried to appeal to Republicans and Trump supporters during her current campaign, featuring the former president in her ads throughout some of the cycle. 

Wisconsin is a presidential battleground state and considered a toss up in the election. As split-ticket voting becomes increasingly rare, it's likely that the party that wins the presidency also wins the Senate races in several key states, including Wisconsin. 

The poll was conducted between Oct. 18 and 21 and interviewed 1,108 likely voters in Wisconsin. The margin of error was +/- 2.9 percentage points.
