Republicans aired more Senate election ads than Democrats in several battleground states, including Iowa, Kentucky, Colorado and Arkansas, a sharp contrast from two weeks ago when Democrats had the ad advantages there. The change comes because of increased spending from outside groups in support of Republican candidates, according to a new study from Wesleyan Media Project, a group that tracks broadcast ads aired by federal and state election candidates across the country.
Independent group ad sponsors have kept Republicans competitive in a number of the tightest Senate races over the past two weeks, Erika Franklin Fowler, co-director of the Wesleyan Media Project, said in a statement. She said the shift is a big change from earlier this monthwhen Democrats led nearly everywhere.
Between Sept. 12 and Sept. 25, Republican ads outnumbered those favoring Democrats in four of the top 10 Senate races during the second half of September. Republicans poured more money into campaign ads during those two weeks in five of the 10 top Senate races. In Kentucky, 56 percent of the ads favoring current Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell were sponsored by outside groups.
In House races, however, Democrats still had the upper hand. Between Sept. 12 and Sept. 25, nearly 37,000 pro-Democratic ads aired in states with competitive races, compared to just 20,000 ads favoring Republican candidates.
The trend we noticed at the beginning of September continues: Democrats are outmatching, outdoing and outgunning Republicans in House races, Travis Ridout, co-director of the Wesleyan Media Project, said. The impact of this disparity is still not clear, but Democrats and their allies are certainly working hard to avoid the midterm curse in 2014.

CHICAGO (WLS) --
Some African American ministers and others have abandoned the Democratic Party to support Oberweis over three-term incumbent Senator Dick Durbin.
"Why not give Jim Oberweis a chance to produce the results that Dick Durbin has not," said Rev. Ira Acree
Dairy magnate Oberweis promised jobs as he opened his headquarters in Woodlawn on the black South Side.
"Creating jobs is something I have done for most of my life and I hope to be able to bring that experience here," Oberweis said.
"Buying a one-month storefront lease on the South Side does not represent a commitment to the people who live there," said Durbin.
After a ribbon-cutting at Northeastern Illinois University warned voters, including African-Americans, about Oberweis.
"He's one of the few candidates who's standing up and saying we shouldn't increase the minimum wage," Durbin said.
"We need someone who's going to visit our community, someone who's going to do for our community and not just at election time," said Reverend Corey B. Brooks.
Rev. Brooks, whose church owns the building the Oberweis campaign is subleasing, also supports Republican Bruce Rauner.
