Major GOP outside group pouring money into increasingly competitive Georgia
Two groups affiliated with American Crossroads – the decade-old powerful outside group that supports Republican candidates and causes – are spending big bucks on TV commercials in a key Senate race in Georgia, a once reliably red state that recent polling indicates is now up for grabs.
Fox News has learned that One Nation – the nonprofit advocacy arm of American Crossroads – on Wednesday is placing an $8.65 million ad buy to run spots for four weeks in Georgia, starting on August 4.
And Senate Leadership Fund -- a Crossroads-affiliated super PAC that works to “protect and expand” the GOP majority in the Senate – is expected later this week to shell out up to $13.5 million to start running ads in mid-September.
The ad buys -- the latest by Republican groups in recent weeks -- illustrate that Georgia is increasingly becoming a battleground state. The National Republican Senatorial Committee, the reelection arm of Senate Republicans, booked at least $2 million to run spots in the state starting later this month, as per the ad-tracking firm Advertising Analytics. And President Trump’s reelection campaign reserved air time to run commercials in Georgia from September through Election Day.
