| Description | According to published reports by the Politico and Associated Press, the National Republican Senatorial Campaign Committee has canceled its entire $2.3 million television buy for the New Mexico Senate race, essentially abandoning its nominee Steve Pearce and conceding the state. New Mexico joins Virginia in the category of states the NRSC has conceded by declining to run any television ads in support of the Republican nominee.
According to the AP, the NRSC canceled its New Mexico ads a little more than a week after the committee announced it “would have to scale back advertising in battleground states because Republican senators haven't contributed enough money to compete with Democrats.” Politico writes that the “committee has reserved time in every other competitive state, but financial constraints may force further cutbacks in ad buys.” |
