The page contains multiple explicit directives segmented by voter demographics, geography, and media channel (streaming, radio, mail, in-language newspapers), instructing what ads or communications should be run and what messages they should carry. This language is clearly addressed to outside groups (super PACs or independent expenditure organizations) that would execute paid media buys, not to voters or the campaign's own press shop. The presence of standard campaign elements (donate buttons, press kit) does not negate the dominant red-boxing function.
