In a move that would have been far-fetched even a few months ago, Joe Biden is set to spend $6.2 million on ads in Texas over the next month — attempting to put the state in play for the first time in decades
Neither campaign has released their fundraising totals for September yet. But a person familiar with the total confirmed to POLITICO that Biden is expected to beat his own August total.
In addition to Texas, the Biden campaign is also investing in earnest this week in Ohio, the perennial battleground state that Trump won by 8 points in 2016. "President Trump and our campaign are extremely confident about states like Texas, Ohio, and Iowa," said Trump campaign spokeswoman Courtney Parella.
While Biden expands the battleground map, Trump and the GOP aren’t chasing the Democratic campaign. That's because they've already fallen behind in TV advertising in the states mostly likely to decide whether he wins or loses, such as Michigan and Pennsylvania. But even in those states, Biden is still outspending Trump two- or even three-to-one on TV ads over the last few weeks.
