Let’s be honest: “Cable” is an awkward word nowadays. As of 2024, a little less than half of U.S. households no longer pay for traditional TV, and cord-cutting is now the norm, not the exception, according to Park Associates.

From local races to the presidential election, the ability to run effective and efficient advertising campaigns will be crucial in swaying undecided voters and securing victories. With political ad spending expected to reach record highs—some estimates suggest it could surpass $12 billion — candidates and their teams must be more strategic than ever in how they allocate their media budgets.
