Huge Uptick in Negative Trump ads in NC.

Any other swing state voters notice it in their state? I've seen misleading ads on "superpredator", basement dwellers, deplorables, hits on emails, foundation donors and women, and clinton scandals.

They are going into the gutter for these last few weeks.

3. Agree about NC. Also, lots attacking Ross

It is almost continuous negative ads against Clinton and Ross, with a lesser number coming back against Trump and Burr. The spending in the Cooper-McCrory race seems much lower. Could be that Cooper is further ahead.

The attacks on Ross on the flag issue are on almost every web page with advertising.

Seems like at first Burr had a positive ad or two, but in last couple of weeks all the ads just relentlessly slam Ross.

But I have been glad to see quite a few Ross ads slamming Burr too though, for his votes and special interests behind him.

5. Florida

I was there recently and there are a lot of trump ads (mostly positive) but even more Clinton ads (almost all negative). Nonstop ads seemingly.

8. That's true, I think some of these channels broadcast in NH and RI

and possibly Maine. I didn't think about that. It just shocked me to see them at all because up until this point, I have barely seen anything from him and now all of a sudden, this flood of negative ads.

Also, they are just horrible.
