Glad to see our nation turning out to vote, when we vote, America is at its best!
“It’s possible 85 million people could vote before Election Day and perhaps 150 million will vote in total. Ten times more mail ballots have been returned than at this point in 2016 and twice as many people have voted in-person.”

I’m also in Texas and have noticed this. It’s an expensive market to be buying ads in, too. If the Trump campaign has to worry about Texas might as well pack up and leave.
Third option: someone involved in selling airtime or developing the ads is getting a cut of the action. Would love to see what the cost to return is for this. There’s such a thing as intentionally bad investments.

Coming in hot with the agency risk angle. I like it, considering Parscale has been milking the campaign for millions.
To spend. Or they know they are in big trouble and are trying their best to win Texas.

Texas will probably go Trump, but it’s not a given due to demographical changes, huge destruction in oil demand due to covid (esp in the US b/c of mismanagement), and his propensity to turn off women, college educated, and suburbanites...all growing in number in Texas.
Makes sense to invest a little money there, because a Texas loss essentially slams the door shut for him. You can lie, but money always tells the truth. Outlays in Texas and pulling spend from Michigan implies a campaign on the defensive.
Exactly my thoughts
This is interesting to me. Live in IL and see D ads for president all the time in every election cycle that I can remember.
