Each link opens the page's political ads in the Meta Ad Library.
Figures cover domestic political ads billed in US dollars, from 1 October 2025. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend.
