Campaigns and outside groups launch new TV ads in the country’s most competitive House districts.

The ads focus on cost of living, abortion and the U.S.-Mexico border.

But the presidential race and party leaders barely came up over the last week .

Democrats need to net just four seats to take over the House , while Republicans need just four .

Republicans are looking to go on offense on concerns about illegal immigration and the state of the U.S.-Mexico border, a key issue for Trump ’s campaign as well.

Democrats are trying to answer back on the border in some places, with nearly 20% of Democratic ads also referencing the issue.
