(Justin Sullivan/Getty Images)The most prominent Democratic super PAC exclusively targeting House races said Thursday it plans to reserve $43 million worth of TV ad time ahead of November’s midterm elections, sketching out dozens of media markets where it plans to spend. The $43 million total gives the best indication yet of the Democratic super PAC’s 2018 fundraising ambitions. In the 2016 cycle, HMP raised and spent about $56 million, and the group expects to exceed that total in 2018. The Congressional Leadership Fund, meanwhile, recently reported raising nearly $10 million this year alone, bringing its cash on hand to nearly $25 million.
