A national Democratic super PAC says it plans to double its campaign spending in Texas. Forward Majority had originally intended to spend more than six million dollars on 18 Texas House races, but announced on Tuesday that the figure will now be 12 million. The group says the outlay will be for TV, digital and mail ads in the disputed districts. Forward Majority is joining forces with an anti-gun group to target a seat in Houston and another in Dallas. GOP groups and Gov. Greg Abbott's campaign are also increasing fundraising efforts.
