US Senate Democrats lay out plan for $79 million campaign to hold majority including spending against Cruz
From
Politico:
Senate
Democrats’ campaign arm is launching a $79 million advertising plan that’s
aimed at holding onto the majority this fall — alongside spending by a key
party super PAC and individual candidates — according to details first shared
with POLITICO.
The
Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee’s spending blueprint includes TV, radio and digital advertising in nine states and comes on
the heels of a $239 million spending plan from the super PAC, Senate Majority.
Together the two entities will pour in more than $300 million in a bid to
preserve the party’s 51-seat majority, which is up for grabs this fall with
tough Senate races across the map.
The
DSCC is also planning seven-figure digital advertisements in Montana,
Wisconsin, Nevada, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Arizona and
Michigan as well as against its top two GOP targets: Sens. Ted Cruz of Texas
and Rick Scott of Florida.
