Focus: U.S. Sen. Dean Heller

Who's paying for it: Senate Majority PAC, the super PAC aligned with Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer

Size of buy: Backed by an ongoing seven-figure buy

When it starts: Nov. 1

Where it's running: Statewide

The gist: This new ad repeats attacks from an earlier Senate Majority PAC ad attacking Heller on Medicare. It says that he “caved to party bosses and voted to cut Medicare by nearly $500 billion,” referring to his vote in favor of a budget resolution to cut $473 billion from Medicare over the next decade.

“The only thing we can trust Dean Heller to do is put his party before your health care,” the ad says.
