The top super political action committee backing Hillary Clinton will begin to dramatically accelerate its advertising spending this week, which follows a rough patch on the campaign trail for the Democratic presidential nominee that included some slippage in her poll standings, a controversial remark, and a bout with pneumonia.

Priorities USA, which is led by Democratic strategist Guy Cecil, is booked to spend an estimated $5.2 million this week on TV ads, data from Kantar Media/CMAG shows. That's up from the roughly $1 million spent during the first week of September, and $4.5 million during the month's second week.
