The Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee (DLCC) announced on Friday their plans to invest $16 million in state legislative elections this fall, as they push to flip seats from red to blue. The DLCC said that the $35 million investment is the largest sum invested in down-ballot races by a democratic organization. The committee is ramping up its political efforts as states face potential redistricting, and the GOP-controlled Senate pushes to add another conservative justice to the Supreme Court.
