Multi-millionaire Georgia senator Kelly Loeffler uses campaign ad to boast about her private plane after coming under fire for offloading stocks following secret coronavirus briefing

Georgia Sen. Kelly Loeffler used her private plane and her vast fortune as an upside in new political ads after facing criticism for offloading stocks amid the pandemic after receiving secret Senate briefings on the coronavirus. 

Loeffler is spending $4 million on ads that accuse the left of unfairly targeting her - just like President Trump - as the story of her dumping stocks has plummeted her chances of keeping her seat in November. 

'Kelly donated her Senate pay to fight coronavirus. Kelly used her personal plane to bring stranded Georgians home safely. And Kelly gave a $1 million to keep a Georgia hospital,' one of the three new ad says.

Two of Sen. Kelly Loeffler's new ads showcase her private jet - and the new spots discuss how she donated her Senate pay to efforts to combat the coronavirus 

Two of the new ads include visuals of her private jet - which are a departure from most re-election spots, which tend to feature a lawmaker's Congressional record over his or her personal wealth.   

Loeffler is new to Congress having been appointed by Republican Gov. Brian Kemp to fill the seat of retiring Sen. Johnny Isakson. She's a multi-millionaire and the wife of Jeffrey Sprecher, the chairman of the New York Stock Exchange. 

Loeffler arrived on Capitol Hill in early January and will serve less than a year before she's on the ballot again. 

A special election will take place the same day as Georgia's general election in November to fill Isakson's seat for the last two years of his term. A run-off election is planned for January 5, 2021 if no candidate on the ballot earns a majority. 

Currently there are several Republicans and Democrats running to fill Loeffler's seat.

Rep. Doug Collins, the top Republican on the House Judiciary Committee during impeachment, is running against Sen. Kelly Loeffler in the November special election to win the last two years of retired Sen. Johnny Isakson's term 

The most prominent is Rep. Doug Collins, who served as the top Republican on the House Judiciary Committee during Trump's impeachment hearings. 

An internal GOP poll obtained by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution found that Collins topped the bipartisan field earning 29 per cent of the vote. 

Among Republicans, he outperforms Loeffler by a 62-18 per cent margin. 

Among all Georgian voters, Loeffler gets about 11 per cent of the vote, which is about the same level of support Democrats Matt Lieberman and Raphael Warnock are currently receiving. 

Trump has continued to back Loeffler publicly despite her stock dump. 

Asked by DailyMail.com why she was included in the bipartisan coronavirus taskforce of lawmakers, Trump answered last month, 'Well, because she's the senator from a great state, a state that I love: Georgia.' 

The president had invited every Republican senator to be on the taskforce, except Sen. Mitt Romney, who voted for one of the articles of impeachment against Trump in February. 

Trump said he didn't know much about her stock trading. 

'I don't know. I really don't know about that. But she's a senator from Georgia and she was included on the list, absolutely,' he answered.
