Election advertising on social media. Be it promoted tweets, Farcebook adverts or stuff on YouTube. Please feel free to share what examples of this you come across.

The good news is that the election ads I've seen online for this election are much better targeted than they were for Mayoral elections. Which begs that question, how come Parliamentary candidates are able to target voters in their local area but the likes of Susan Hall and Sadiq Khan were putting out advertising that ended up reaching me in the North of England instead of Londoners?

Within hours of the election being called I was seeing an advert from Labour on Facebook that looked like it had only just been filmed that day with their local candidate stood on a hill making a speech about the election being called.
