A Democratic super PAC is launching a major summer ad blitz aimed at supporting Democrats running for Senate in six battleground states this November.
The Senate Majority PAC and its nonprofit arm Majority Forward have reserved $38 million in television ad time for this summer in Nevada, Arizona, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Wisconsin, and New Hampshire, according to details of the ad campaign obtained exclusively by CBS News.
The new ad campaign comes after the Democratic group made an initial reservation of more than $106 million for TV ads set to air in the fall. The summer ad push will focus on protecting vulnerable Senate Democrats in crucial battleground states and will aim to negatively define Republican candidates who are relatively unknown to voters.
