- The advertising campaign will begin the day after the Democratic National Convention in August and run until Election Day on Nov 5.
- The ads will target voters in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, with a focus on younger voters, Spanish speakers and Black voters.
- Of the total budget, $140 million will be spent on television ads and $110 million on digital ads, including $35 million on YouTube.
- The massive ad campaign comes as polls show Biden trailing his likely Republican opponent, former president Donald Trump, in several battleground states.
