Politico has the list of races that they are targeting here. When you add Gifford's $20 million to the $50 million that Bloomberg plans to spend this year and the money that other gun control groups are putting up, this is going to be yet another election where gun control advocates massively outspend those who support self defense rights. From Politico:
The group said they have raised $14.5 million in donations so far and is on track to meeting its fundraising goal of $20 million by the end of the election cycle. . . .
“The NRA typically spends about $20 million an election cycle,” added Kelly.”We’ve had great success in the amount of money we’ve raised. … [T]his debate is not going to be out of balance anymore.” . . .
Democratic Rep. Ron Barber in Arizona . . .; Democratic Sen. Mark Udall in Colorado; Democratic Rep. Bruce Braley, running for Senate in Iowa, Democratic Sen. Mary Landrieu in Louisiana; Republican Sen. Susan Collins in Maine; Democratic Sen. Al Franken in Minnesota; Sen. Jeanne Shaheen and Reps. Carol Shea-Porter and Ann McLane Kuster, all Democrats, in New Hampshire; Democratic Sen. Kay Hagan in North Carolina; and GOP Rep. Mike Fitzpatrick in Pennsylvania.
