DCCC Commits $1.4 Million To CD-6

​As reported by the AP via ABC News:

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee on Thursday began reserving advertising time with television stations across the country. Where and when the House Democrats' campaign arm is looking to spend money…

—$1.4 million on Denver broadcast and cable ads from Oct. 21 to Nov. 4 to challenge Rep. Mike Coffman, a Republican.

Different media markets have different cost factors, but in absolute terms, only a few races are seeing more investment from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC)–races in pricey markets like New York and Philadephia, and a particularly tight freshman protect effort in Phoenix. Once you account for the difference in ad rates for these markets, clearly no practical expense is being spared in the drive to unseat Rep. Mike Coffman. Spending by the DCCC and like entities on the other side is a reliable indicator of where strategists believe their best chances lie.

It's just another confirmation of what our readers already know–CD-6 is the marquee congressional race in Colorado this year.

      1. I'm sure it isn't.  It's finishing big, end game shot in the arm money. Particularly well spent to get out more of the kind of Dem leaning young voters who don't send in that ballot as soon as they get it like Grandma and Grandpa often do or demos in which many prefer to vote at an early polling place (often at the last minute) or on election day. Money spent to motivate more potential voters in a midterm to actually get off their butts and vote at all is well spent and, for certain Dem vote rich target groups, probably best spent late. Dem candidates need strong finishes.

        1. PS. You can count on plenty of money being spent much earlier than that, too. This isn't a race I'd worry about being underfunded at any point in time, whether by the DCCC or other sources.

          1. So this particular chunk of change isn't targeted toward you.  I'm sure there's plenty targeted towards various demos that will be spent at various stages along the way. Dems can smell blood  in the water. No expense will be spared.
