AFP Action Warns GOP Senate Majority at Risk After 1 Million Doors, $6 Million Ad Push

Summary
AFP Action says Republicans are in danger of losing the Senate, arguing its field work now shows Democrats are winning voters on affordability and cost of living.
1 million doors knocked in target Senate districts convinced the Koch-linked super PAC that prices, housing and gas are the dominant concerns, and that about 20% of high-propensity Republican base voters are at risk.
More than $6 million in ads and direct voter outreach are being used to push GOP candidates toward a single message: focus relentlessly on inflation and household costs rather than other distractions.
Trump’s weakening approval and the war in Iran, which AFP says is lifting gas prices, have added to Democratic optimism even though Republicans had once been expected to hold the chamber.
