In Central Florida, Steyer and a ton of Bloomberg ads. Does anyone even watch live TV anymore? Seems like a waste.
Over the air TV viewership is still huge, and advertising is now cheaper than it once was.
There are still lots of people who turn on their TV in the morning and leave it on all day, just for some background noise and a sense of connection to the outside world. They tend to be older folks, retirees and stay-at-homes who aren't so tightly tied to the digital world or the internet.
Cable TV has been losing viewers to the internet, while on-air TV is now growing after those broadcast frequencies were changed to digital a few years ago. The older folks use both cable and broadcast TV; it depends on their individual wealth and other factors.
It's all about targeting the most likely voters in all political advertising, and the older voters have always been the most likely voters. Older voters get most of their information from radio and TV.
They are also the most faithful to their chosen party, if one has been chosen. Many don't declare their affiliations, so it's hard to determine the level of affiliation in some areas, while it's easy in other areas.
Nothing but Bloomberg here (N. Idaho). Our broadcast TV stations are out of Spokane, WA. He's pretty much a laughing stock in our area. A septuagenarian oligarch as the face of the Democratic party...

Who knows, four years ago, the Republicans had their own laughing stock candidate and look how that turned out. Just ask Little Marco and Lying Ted.
I'm in Central North Carolina, and so far I've only seen Bloomberg (numerous times), and occasionally a Trump ad, but no other presidential candidates have aired television ads in my area.
This may (?) change between now and November, but so far it has only been those two. What is everyone else seeing (and please say where you're from).
***Important: Thank you for your response and I would greatly appreciate it if we can please keep this on-topic, as there are many, many other threads to vent your opinions and viewpoints on the pros and cons of various candidates and political viewpoints.
Bloomberg 10 times more than Trump and no one else at all. I'm in Dallas.
In my part of CA
tv: Bloomberg
youtube: Bloomberg
radio: Steyer : "He knows the needs of our people, believes in climate change. He's my guy! Donald Trump has got to go!" (that commercial is so annoying)
Her in the Nashville area, up until a couple of weeks ago or so it was just Steyer. Then Bloomberg has come in hot and heavy, one after the other. And just this evening I saw the first one for Bernie.
