Big-Money Democrat PAC Throws $50 Million into Midterm Battleground StatesWendell Husebø 31 Jan 2022
A Democrat super PAC on Monday announced an allotment of $50 million towards battleground states, a sum designated to help Democrats retain control of all three branches of government in 2022.
Priorities USA, a PAC founded by two former Barack Obama aides that influenced the 2018 and 2020 elections, has allocated $30 million to crucial swing states for digital ad campaigns, Politico reported. The states include Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Arizona, Nevada, Georgia, and New Hampshire.
The PAC has also apportioned $20 million to fight election integrity efforts in states that have passed legislation in opposition to voter fraud. The money will also be used to fund a coalition of Democrats who worked to elect Joe Biden in 2020.
Guy Cecil (pictured: inset), chairman of Priorities USA, told Politico he is worried about Biden’s low approval rating of 33 percent and believes throwing money at the problem may improve the president’s favorability.
“Over the last three months, we have been running some programs that specifically look at how we improve Biden’s favorability rating among those voters,” Cecil said. “A lot of these people just want to disengage with politics. They’re tired of it. It can’t be a typical ad where the primary focus is the candidate.”
Priorities USA claimed it has raised double the amount it brought in for the 2018 midterm elections.
