Senate Republicans' main campaign arm will unveil a seven-figure ad campaign in Georgia, Arizona, Nevada and New Hampshire targeting Democrats’ effort to expand voting, Axios has learned.

Why it matters: These are the National Republican Senatorial Committee's (NRSC) first TV ads of the 2022 midterms cycle and show how potent S.1 (the Senate's version of H.R. 1) is for Republicans — both in how it would overhaul the nation's elections and as a messaging tool.

The group told Axios it sees these four states as the Senate Republicans' prime targets to unseat Democrat incumbent Sens. Raphael Warnock of Georgia, Mark Kelly of Arizona, Catherine Cortez Masto of Nevada and Maggie Hassan of New Hampshire.

Details: The ads, which will begin airing on Monday, focus on what the GOP says are the most unpopular aspects of the bill, according to their internal polling.

3. I was in Arizona recently and the repukes ads were disgusting

They went after Xavier Berra and Vanita Gupta . The elections are over and the repukes just can’t face they lost. My mother in law said these hit ads are on all the time now nonstop.

4. And there has been no Democratic response.

With Manchin who needs the opposition. He will cause Dems to loose the House and Senate in 2022 if something is not done soon about him by the Dems.

5. President Biden needs to call manchin and have the talk.

And investigate if he’s working in cahoots clandestinely with turtle.
