The Scranton broadcast stations

must be having their best year ever. Two competitive Congressional races AND a Presidential race at the same time.

RCCNM is $240,000

and it will be some of the nastiest ads you'll ever see.

Do they look effective?

And is the DCCC doing a good job of slamming White? Is now a good time to send some $$$$ to Heinrich?

Yes, Virginia, there ARE progressives in Nevada!

Haven't started yet

Well, they've started today, I'd think, but I have yet to switch on my TV. It would be a great time to pitch in some money to the Heinrich campaign. A month ago would have been best, but it's better late than never.

I'd use this ActBlue page to pitch in a few bucks.

Remember, in New Mexico it is way cheaper than other states to air ads, so every little bit will help tremendously.

looks like the RCCC

just dropped off a briefcase full of cash on lincoln diaz-balart's doorstep... solidarity money for fellow corrupt hacks... hopefully we'll see d-trip raise them...

Nice

Glad to see the DCCC expanding the map.

It'd be nice to see them spend at least a small bit in every Red to Blue race, just to freak the Republicans out.

So where else...

Is Freedom's Crotch doing the nasty? Any more reports? Besides Heinrich in NM-01, which other Dems should we help?

Freedonm's Crotch

is running a lot of ads in NC against Kay Hagan. NC-Sen.

I also saw an attack ad last night against Larry Kissell (NC-8), running on WTVD-11, the ABC affiliate in Raleigh/Durham. I did not catch who was paying for it, but it was the first attack ad I have seen against Kissell. Somebody must be worried about Robin Hayes...

(Btw, James, I'm sure you're on top of all this, I'm just posting some numbers I think people would be most interested in seeing.)

Actually

Paulsen raised more than that -- those numbers are post-primary, not total 3Q. The total 3Q haul for Paulsen is around 800K I think, meaning that Madia still outraised him, but not quite by the same margin.
