House Dem super PAC will help Democrat Christina Bohannan to oust Mariannette Miller-Meeks.

House Democrats’ largest super PAC is adding to its already massive fall ad campaign, including targeting three new Republican incumbents as it tries to capitalize on a surge of enthusiasm surrounding Vice President Kamala Harris’ rise.

House Majority PAC is adding $24 million to its initial $186 million in TV and digital reservations in April, according to plans shared first with POLITICO. Most of that new money will bolster the original buy.

But the group, which has close ties to House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, has also identified three new offensive targets:

Iowa’s 1st District: HMP is reserving $350,000 worth of ads to boost Democrat Christina Bohannan in a southeast Iowa seat held by Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks.

Wisconsin’s 1st District: The super PAC is booking $725,000 in Milwaukee, where former Democratic Rep. Peter Barca is challenging Rep. Bryan Steil.

Wisconsin’s 3rd District: The group is placing nearly $4 million across three markets in western Wisconsin, where Democrats hope to unseat GOP Rep. Derrick Van Orden.
