Democrats are spending millions more dollars on abortion-themed ads for the midterm elections than Republicans — and pro-choice liberals have plans to allocate many millions more for advertising than their pro-life opponents.
Democrats spent nearly eight times as much on ads discussing abortion as Republicans in the first 50 days after the Supreme Court eliminated a landmark ruling recognizing abortion rights, according to AdImpact data analyzed by The New York Times.
The media tracking firm’s data showed Democrats have spent $31.9 million and Republicans $4.2 million.
“In the closest Senate and governor’s contests, Republicans have spent virtually nothing countering the Democratic offensive,” The New York Times said.
