DCCC pulls ads in 12 districts and buys in 6 districts. [View all]
The cancellations include:
Californias 3rd and 10th districts: This now-canceled reservation for the second-to-last week of the campaign was initially intended as airtime to protect Democratic Rep. John Garamendi and target Republican Rep. Jeff Denham.
