Democratic candidates across the country are getting hammered on crime and public safety. The left’s best-funded gun safety group thinks they have the answer on how to push back: linking crime to how easy it is to get a gun in America.
“In the legislature, she funded law enforcement all over the state and she worked with a Republican governor to make Georgia a national leader in criminal justice reform,” the ad continues. “She’ll keep guns out of the hands of dangerous people.”
Asked about Everytown’s spending plans for the 2022 midterms, Kelly declined to get into specific figures but noted the group has “been significant investors and participants before, I think you’ll see that again this cycle.” So far, the group has spent about $2 million on 2022 midterm work. In 2020,about $60 million on its electoral program, including about $21 million in independent expenditures.
In the memo describing the findings of its research project, Everytown tested messages that linked a candidate who “opposes background checks on all gun sales and supports permitless carry” with “violent criminals can buy a gun with no questions asked.” Compared to a control group, swing voters who saw that message moved 5 points toward Democratic candidates.
