Packed race to succeed Bucshon in Congress has narrowed

EVANSVILLE — One big clue about how the crowded race to succeed 8th District Congressman Larry Bucshon is shaping up is where the money's being spent.

About $2 million collectively had been spent in the race by outside groups as of mid-April, according to ad tracker data provided by The Cook Political Report. The ad money is coming from the Republican Jewish Coalition (RJC), the United Democracy Project, a super PAC (political action committee) tied to the pro-Israel lobbying group American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), and super PAC America Leads Action.
