The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee will pour at least seven figures into building out a ground infrastructure to help defend Senators Jon Tester of Montana and Sherrod Brown of Ohio in their must-win Red State races, Politico reports on a tall order for DSCC chair Gary Peters.
The amounts haven’t been nailed down yet, but Peters, the Michigan Dem Senator, told
Politico in a statement that he’s aiming to create “investments in sustained, effective grassroots organizing will lay the groundwork for our campaigns to win tough races.” The DSCC are also looking to make smaller pushes to see if there’s any shot at taking down detestable and unpopular GOP incumbents Ted Cruz in Texas and Rick Scott in Florida though those may be an even taller order.
