    • Abstract:
      Media spending on political advertising by U.S. House of Representatives candidates from Texas is dwarfing that seen in every other state in the union so far, according to the latest Ad Age Campaign Ad Scorecard analysis. And regardless of how the slate of candidates from both parties shakes out after May 24, there is the additional complicating factor of recent redistricting: The formerly reliably blue 15th congressional district in Texas has been redrawn in such a way as to make a GOP win there in November all but certain. Political ad spending is bigger in Texas - way bigger: The Lone Star State is No. 1 by a wide margin in U.S. House race media outlay, according to Ad Age Datacenter analysis.
