The Harris/Walz camapign IS vacuuming up TONS of campaign. cash…
I get hit with on-line and mail solicts for money almost everyday…..
Republicans maybe ALL ov er Musk’s Twitter talking shit….
But they are NOT making money like Democrats. who can could Trump’s craziness to generate fear…
With only 63 days from today as I write this?
Republicans sense they DO HAVE A $$$ PROBLEM….
Panic is starting to set in.
“The only thing preventing us from having a great night in November is the massive financial disparity our party currently faces,” said Jason Thielman, the executive director of the National Republican Senatorial Committee. “We are on a trajectory to win the majority, but unless something changes drastically in the next six weeks, we will lose winnable seats.”
In some ways it’s a familiar place for the party, which has found itself facing a version of this quandary every two years since former President Donald Trump turbocharged Democrats’ small-dollar fundraising. And Republicans are sounding the alarm now because they believe there is still time to fix it.
They know they won’t be able to match Democrats dollar-for-dollar, but they need to narrow the deficit to stay in the game.
But Democrats are reaching new heights, pounding the airwaves with multimillion-dollar ad blitzes while their GOP opponents are still scrambling for funds. In some key Senate battlegrounds, Democrats are so flush with cash that they are outspending Republicans by tens of millions on the air. That’s forced the GOP to lean heavily on super PACs, which can raise unlimited amounts of money but must pay higher rates for the same ad slots.
Time’s running out: The next few weeks of fundraising will determine whether Senate Republicans can seriously contest Democratic-held seats in places beyond the red states of Montana and Ohio — and just how much House Republicans can go on offense while still protecting the slew of incumbents they have in blue districts. They need the funds as soon as possible to communicate during early voting and make sure Democrats aren’t totally unchallenged on the air in the final weeks.
Biden’s exit from the presidential race — and Harris’ sudden ascent has brought Democrats fresh hope about their electoral odds and spooked Republicans….
