This is the 2nd time today on DU I'm hearing the opposite... and it's worrying me.

The 3 Locals (KDKA, WTAE, and WPXI) generally go 1 for 1, on cable (I have Xfinity), it depends on the amount of 'local' time that was sold during shows.
The TSF ads are a choice between about 4 different ones + assorted outside groups, surprisingly, ALL negative
There are multiple ad's from the Harris campaign, including a great one against Project 2025

The Trump / 2025 ad is the only one I've seen.

Any and all political ads on TV. Both sides. I know whom I am voting for. Trump’s YouTube ads can be skipped after 5 seconds. Harris has a more extensive YT buy (15-20 seconds) that cannot be skipped.

I was alright until 3-4 days ago when DU started with the negative posts or the super positive posts. Not much in the middle. I’m still reading and lurking, but my God, it’s been nerve-racking.

Most of Harris' ads are positive, but there have been a few negative ads. There've been a few anti-Trump ads run by different PACS as well. There's basically only 1 ad for Trump (negative, of course) that I'm seeing in this area. It does run pretty frequently, but I figure the more people keep seeing the same ad over and over and over (sometimes 3 or 4 times in an hour), it will turn them off. It certainly does to me (even with Democratic ads). I just mute or change the channels immediately.

It seems more than TV ads, Republicans here are trying to overwhelm people with Pro Trump/Anti-Harris mailers. It seems Like I've gotten about 50 of them over the past month. While they are annoying, I think they are a gigantic waste of money for Republicans. So if they want to keep wasting their money on them, it's OK with me. I glance at them to see what outrageous lies they're spewing, laugh at them, then shred them.

I get a bunch from Trump, RNC, and others. I have saved a whole stack of them. Most seem very poorly designed. Most have focused on Kamala as "failed, weak, & dangerously liberal". Their design is very cluttered in ways that are near impossible to read. Sort of like trying to listen to Trump speak.

"their design is very cluttered in ways that are near impossible to read. Sort of like trying to listen to Trump speak."

But that is a perfect description.

Fear not, the ads are on constantly. There has been an uptick of McCormick ads bashing Casey. Maybe I'm biased but the Harris & Casey speak to "kitchen table" issues.

Also, there are a ton of ads on the local sports radio. I listen when I work from home.

As for the ground game, we don't know what to do with the volunteers.
