Political ad buyers looking to stretch precious campaign dollars target television shows they believe undecided voters are watching. We took the 50 network shows that have aired the most political ads this election year and counted how many were for each party. Here are the shows with the highest percentage of Democratic and Republican spots.

(21,850 posts)Could it be that fewer democrats watch tv? Or that most shows are more evenly divided among the parties?
Btw I don't have a tv. I watch some shows online.

(14,308 posts)It's not which shows are the most watched.
In other words, this is where Democratic candidates think they can reach undecided voters that would vote for them.
Looking at it that way, it makes more sense I think.
Democratic candidates are looking for women voters who are unlikely to vote. That's why the General Hospital and Judge Judy.
I think the Republican ones make less sense.
Are you looking for undecided or tuned out voters who watch the news every day? Seems like they would have long ago decided.
