Georgia Senate race money dries up as Ossoff pulls ahead
Both parties' super PACs have stopped spending on TV in Georgia, signalling the race is no longer competitive.
In brief
Both parties' super PACs have stopped spending on TV in Georgia, signalling the race is no longer competitive. Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff's commanding lead in Georgia has prompted both parties' main super PACs to halt television spending and redirect resources to more competitive races. Originally reported by Politico.
Money stops flowing in Georgia
The Senate Leadership Fund, Republicans' top Senate super PAC, did not spend on broadcast television in Georgia last week, the first week they were off air in the race.
Democrats also go dark
Senate Majority PAC, the Chuck Schumer-aligned group, also did not spend on broadcast television last week and will be dark again this week.
Ossoff's commanding lead
Sen. Jon Ossoff maintains wide margins over Republican Rep. Mike Collins in public polling and fundraising, shifting Georgia's place on the Senate map dramatically.
Georgia no longer a battleground
Georgia was expected to be one of the cycle's most expensive and preeminent battlegrounds. Now some of the biggest outside spenders are pulling back and turning attention elsewhere.
Money flows to redder races
Outside spenders are redirecting resources to more competitive races in redder territory as Georgia's Senate race becomes less contested.
In short
Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff's commanding lead in Georgia has prompted both parties' main super PACs to halt television spending and redirect resources to more competitive races.
