Interest Group/Indep. Expenditure Ads—General Election

The general election ad campaign began on May 17 with ads from the pro-Clinton Priorities USA Action attacking presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump.  Keep in mind that whether you will see any ads depends not only on what state you live in and what programs you watch, but also to a degree on how you receive your television (via broadcast, cable or satellite (+).  The big player throughout was Priorities USA Action.  On Election Day eve, the super PAC, which raised around $175 million in the cycle, reported spending roughly $116 million on TV advertising, $28 million on digital and $2.5 million on radio.
