Republicans are now putting money behind their claims that Colorado and Washington are potential Senate pickup opportunities this fall, launching ads this week in the two blue states.
The NRSC is spending $765,000 on a week’s worth of television ads in Washington, in addition to $250,000 in Colorado. Democrats in each state have already been on the attack against the Republican challengers there, suggesting the party anticipated that their incumbents could find themselves in tight races.
Public polls since June have shown Murray’s lead over Smiley anywhere from 5 to 20 percentage points, leaving uncertainty about how close the general election race will actually be there. “Mitch McConnell and MAGA Republicans are desperate to see their handpicked candidate, Tiffany Smiley, elected to the Senate so they can pass their agenda that would ban abortion nationwide, gut our democracy, and end Medicare and Social Security in five years — so, of course, they’re placing six-figure buys in Washington state,” Hare said in a statement.
