Someone help me please. Just watched another great ad from The Lincoln Project.....

......and, as usual, am wondering who else is seeing it. Only place I see it is in DU posts. I'm in a pretty red media market (Spokane, WA.) and never see it anywhere else. Can you reassure me that it's getting around? Thanks

Thanks anyway. I'm sure you share my hope that lots of swing voters are seeing it. EarnestPutz Oct 2024 #2

But that doesn’t mean anyone is watching it as it depends if you actually watch it by opening it.
I’ve not seen it on tv as an ad.
Although not in Spokane I’m on the same side of the state as you, only have roku tv but can get local news on it from either of the big cities tend to watch Seattle channels more.
It would be interesting to find out.
Porbobaly none of this helps much. Sorry

And I often wonder when I see their things if anybody, but Democrats are watching or clicking to watch. 🤞

They advertise in NJ and FL a lot, in part to get under Trump's skin.

As far as measuring reach to persons with fascist leanings, Twitter is probably the best place to check, and they have nearly 3 million followers there:

And you can probably assume it's not us who needs to see these ads, so it's not going to play in regions where people understand the truth. They'll target the most blight-ridden and depressed regions of the country--filled almost entirely with MAGAT hate, poverty and racism.

It wouldn't be insane to take some profits from a market at all-time highs and invest it in Lincoln Project. This market won't have any value left if TFG steals the Presidency again.

Maybe that is what Warren Buffett is doing with money from his Bank of America sales?
