Dem Super PAC Books $40 Million in Midterm Ads

By James Arkin

House Majority PAC, the top outside organization dedicated to Democrats flipping control of the House of Representatives, announced Thursday that it is booking more than $40 million in television advertising for the final weeks of this year’s midterm elections.

The ads will run in 33 media markets, spanning dozens of potentially competitive races. The largest booking comes in Los Angeles, where the organization plans to spend more than $5 million on advertising that will reach several Republican-held districts Democrats are targeting.
