LOS ANGELES Taco Bell Corp. will run a full-page ad today in the Los Angeles Times and the Sacramento Bee that ties the chain’s products into California’s gubernatorial recall election. The onetime-only ad, from Foote, Cone & Belding in San Francisco, says that the company will count a vote for Arnold Schwarzenegger for each Crunchy Beef Taco sale and one for Gov. Gray Davis for each Soft Chicken Burrito sold. Taco Bell will split a vote among the other candidates on the overcrowded ballot for each Grilled Stuft Burrito sold.
