I dont think they do those.  Swing voters respond to negativity.

What state are you in?

California.

Regardless, it is refreshing to see some positive ads rather than negative ads all the time.

You are in California and you see ads?  Are you close to Nevada?

Nope, I'm in San Diego (suburb of San Diego technically), which is down at the southernmost corner by the US-Mexico border.

Has anybody seen any positive Hillary ads in their state recently? I've now seen two, maybe three, different positive ads for Trump, but I don't remember seeing any positive Hillary ones recently. Just wondering out loud at this.

Doesn't make me want to vote Trump any more than I already don't want to vote Trump, I'm just making an observation here.

Was it anything like this?

Most of the time when someone is described as politically correct they are simply correct.

Oddly enough the (political, anyway) ads I've been seeing while playing stick rangers on the kindle have almost entirely been positive clinton ads with the occasional attack on trump. Couldn't say what's on the TV, because it hasn't been turned on since tuesday and I usually try to ignore it anyway, but there you go. Noticed a definite slant towards her earlier work with kids, too.

...That's a Late Show symbol? I thought it was just a meme.

Anyways, not particularily surprising that I'm not seeing all that many positive Hillary ads (at least recently) since California is a safe Democrat state.

Maybe you see anti-Trump ads because they figure it will help GOTV for congressional races.

That's possible. Though the congressional district I'm in seems rather safe for republicans.

So, going by the 538 model we might actually be seeing a return of the Clinton landslide scenario. It's not quite back to the days in September when Texas was at risk, but it could get there if Donald keeps fucking up the debates.
