By Max Greenwood - 08/04/20 10:44 AM EDT
Senate Democrats’ campaign arm is set to make its first major investment in the general election fight between M.J. Hegar and Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) in Texas.
The seven-figure coordinated investment from the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC) includes spending on television advertising, polling, field organizing and data operations, the group announced on Tuesday.
The new spending was first reported on Tuesday by Politico.
It comes on the heels of an internal poll from the DSCC showing Cornyn and Hegar running neck-and-neck in the Texas Senate race, with the GOP incumbent garnering 43 percent of the vote to Hegar’s 42 percent. Another 15 percent of those surveyed were undecided.
