The Schumer-aligned Senate Majority PAC is spending $5 million on Kansas TV ads from Saturday, Oct. 10, through Election Day, vs. more than $10 million the GOP's Senate Leadership Fund has booked. The money backs Adam Hamilton (D-KS) against Roger Marshall (Sen-R Kansas). The first ad hits Marshall for voting to table an amendment to release the Epstein files.
