RVT announced this week that they would be spending $11.5 million on ads in a number of swing states. This comes as the race to election day gets underway.
A group that is against Trump is spending almost $12 million on a campaign against the former president. It is their biggest ad campaign to date, and it will include ads and billboards of people who no longer support Trump.
There are comments from these former GOP fans who have switched their support to Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign in a 30-second ad.
Voters in Nebraska’s 2nd Congressional District, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Arizona, and Wisconsin are the focus of the flood of ads. Harris needs to win Pennsylvania, which is one of the most important swing states, so the group will spend $4.5 million on ads there.
The group plans to spend $3 million in Michigan and $2.2 million in Wisconsin. Additionally, Republican Voters Against Trump plans to spend $1.5 million in Arizona and $375,000 in Nebraska’s 2nd Congressional District. In the 2020 election, Biden got one of its electoral votes.
Nebraska doesn’t give electoral votes the way most states do. Instead, it gives two Electoral College votes to the winner of the state popular vote and one electoral vote to the winner of the popular vote in each of its three congressional districts.
“Donald Trump has destroyed the GOP,” the group’s head, Sarah Longwell, said in a statement. “Every time there is an election, he gets more and more Republicans to switch their vote because they don’t trust Donald Trump or the GOP candidates who look like him.”
The Harris team has tried to get dissatisfied Republicans to help them get more votes. It was last month in Chicago for the Democratic National Convention. Former GOP Rep. Adam Kinzinger and former Trump White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham were two of the most well-known Republicans to talk on stage.
Republican Voters Against Trump has raised six-figure sums of money to stop Trump from becoming president a second time.
An ad that ran in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin in March showed how former Vice President Mike Pence refused to back Trump a second time.
