Summary
The Economist’s election forecast gives Trump a roughly 70 percent chance of victory in November. Trump hasn’t even begun to air campaign advertisements, while Biden has been blanketing swing-state airwaves. As of late May, the Biden campaign was airing $13.6 million worth of ads, while the Trump campaign had yet to spend a single penny on TV spots.
The Biden campaign’s $50 million June ad buy includes a spot that declares, “In the courtroom, we see Donald Trump for who he is. He’ve been convicted of 34 felonies, found liable for sexual assault, and he committed financial fraud.”
