The House Democratic campaign arm on Wednesday launched a multimillion-dollar ad blitz focused on Project 2025, a conservative blueprint for the next Republican presidency that Democrats have been trying to tie to former President Trump and GOP lawmakers.

The digital “get out the vote” ads from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) will focus on different aspects of the agenda that Democrats have been condemning, such as scaling back abortion access, eliminating the Department of Education, privatizing Social Security and cutting overtime pay, a DCCC press release said.

The DCCC noted that a recent survey it had released of battleground House districts found that 56 percent of registered voters have an unfavorable view of Project 2025, per a report from NOTUS.

Democrats and Republicans are in a fever-pitched battle for the House majority, which could go in the direction of either party. The GOP majority at present is just a handful of seats.

this will be known as the election where targeted marketing grew up.

In my view ads accrue to Democrats' benefit more than Repukes because we have something to sell, and they do not. They are still hiding their Proj2025 agenda, showing us Trump dancing like an old crooner and letting Brett Baier do the nasty sleight-of-hand chicanery. We're in the home stretch, and we are accelerating. Trump has nothing new to offer but fear. You are deep in the weeds when stirring up fear of brown neighbors cooking your dog is how you frighten and motivate voters. I guess if you can soak up fear in that way, they Proj2025 won't seem so bad. That is what's going on, no? Only so much fear to go around, grab it for us instead of letting it out there to attach to our agenda.
