A Democratic group gearing up to spend millions against Republican Nevada Senate hopeful Adam Laxalt receives substantial funding from sources that trace back to a dark money network in Washington, D.C., and an entity started by a foreign billionaire, Fox News Digital has discovered.
The Somos PAC, a left-wing committee that targets Latino voters, is in the middle of a $4 million attack ad spending spree against Laxalt, the Republican front-runner to challenge Democratic Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto this November. The PAC began its seven-figure campaign, which it first revealed to Politico, in mid-May by pouring $1.25 million into media buys and website expenses, an independent expenditure report from the committee reviewed by Fox News shows.
