WASHINGTON – Barack Obama outspent John McCain 3-1 in TV advertising in Florida last week – by $1.5 million – with Tampa now climbing to be the Illinois senators’ second-busiest market for ads nationally, behind only Las Vegas, a new study shows.
The study, from the Wisconsin Advertising Project, also shows that the presidential campaign spent $29 million nationally on TV ads from Sept. 28 through Saturday, with Obama spending nearly $6 million more than McCain and the Republican National Committee, which is helping pay for the pro-McCain ads. In Florida, the two combined to spend more than $2.8 million, an amount behind just Pennsylvania and Ohio.
