Hillary Clinton and her allies continue to dominate the presidential battleground-state airwaves, outspending Donald Trump and pro-Trump groups this month, $26 million to $0, according to ad-spending data from SMG Delta.
For the week, it's $7.5 million to $0 in the eight battlegrounds of Colorado, Florida, Iowa, North Carolina, New Hampshire, Nevada, Ohio and Virginia. And when you add future ad reservations, it's $140 million to $0.
In these battleground states, the Clinton campaign has spent nearly $9 million in ads this month, while affiliated outside groups like the pro-Clinton Super PAC Priorities USA have chipped in an additional $17 million.
The sole pro-Trump advertiser, Rebuilding America Now, has aired commercials on national cable TV, not in the battlegrounds - at a price tag of $1.2 million so far.

This would be the Yeb school of campaign strategery.
In Florida every other commercial is the evil hagg’s!
Hillary doesn’t care the Saudi’s have lots of money or so she thinks
I’m in Ohio and there is a pac ad that I find extremely effective for Clinton and truthfully, it bothers me. It is a young family giving history of their little girl being born with a handicap and the video now of her around five years old. They talk about how delightful she is, blah, blah and accepting she is. They then talk about how everyone is taught not to make fun of handicapped people, then the video of the Trump rally when he imitates the guy who was handicapped. Really, it is not flattering for Trump and although it won’t change my vote, it will get a lot of people thinking.
Trump was not talking about some little girl but a ~65 year old New York Slimes bull scribbler who spews lies.
Jeb spent $140 million on ads without gaining on Trump.
The more Hillary spams the airwaves, the more voters will tune it out.
It makes you look desperate, not smart.
why? Is he Superman? I’m thrilled that he’s up for points. However how about we donate and keep donating so that he could flood the airwaves the last 2 months. Instead of Macho bravado Let’s help him out with money and/or making calls for him
Hillary could be Genghis Khan and she would still get 40%... even if she ran no ads at all!
As for negative ads being run against Trump, that didn’t hurt him during the primaries and they won’t hurt him now.
If Hillary wants to burn through her cash stash, that’s her affair.
So Clinton is spending $140 million and Trump is up 4 points. does that mean if she spends $280 million Trump will be up 8 points?
It worked for Jeb!

Boy! If Trump gets the same results with Clinton as he did with Jeb by October it will look as if he is running unopposed and landslide will be the word most used describing his candidacy.
If TV ads won elections, Jebbie Bush would be our nominee today.
I recorded a Blue Bloods rerun on WGN and it had at least 4 Hillary ads with her as first lady.(same ad)
20 to 25 year old pictures of her! LOL
Thank goodness for fast forward.
LOL, $26M down the toilet. I wonder how many more millions it will take before they realize all the ad spending is actually working against them.
140 million to nothing and Trump is ahead 4 points.
And the MSM doesn’t see the irony?
Then you know what? He should have called him a 65 year old New York Slimes bull scribbler who spews lies. Instead he mocked a physical handicap that had nothing to do with anything and gave the opposition plenty to work with. Don’t try to excuse it, it was stupid and unnecessary.
A very similar ad was run against Trump during the primaries, and it was on CNN, MSNBC, and FOX. It’s good to hear that they really haven’t come up with anything new. I suppose next they’ll run the Eminent Domain ad. I still feel that having had about $100 MILLION in attack ads already run against him with little effect, that Clinton’s ads won’t have much effect either. Of course, there is always the possibility that they could come up with an original idea, instead of just copying the Bush, Rubio and Cruz ads.
You can donate at his website. https://www.donaldjtrump.com/
See the upper right corner is the “Donate” button.
I bet Trump gets half a billion in small donation before this is over, and Trump kicks about another $100 to 200 million should be plenty. Hillary only knows how to piss money away.
Trump doesn’t have to match the Witch ad for ad, but make enough effective ads to negate the Thing Hillary.
I guess Hillary wants people to think of her an attractive First Lady.
Talk about truth in advertising.
Its already a lie.
Lol and they’re tied in the polls...trump didn’t need to spend so didnt
