House Democrats In Triage Mode

House Democrats are pulling ads from a formerly competitive Northern Virginia House race, a sign that they are in triage mode as well-heeled outside groups pour money into Senate races instead, Roll Call reports.

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee canceled $2.8 million in ads to help Virginia Democratic candidate John Foust, who is running for the seat currently held by retiring Rep. Frank Wolf (R-VA) against GOP candidate Barbara Comstock.

Instead, they are putting $2 million in to help incumbent Rep. Ami Bera (D-CA), a freshman lawmaker in a seat formerly held by Republican Dan Lungren.

Bera is in a tough race with former-Rep. Doug Ose and outside groups have put serious money in to help defeat him.
