The costliest ads

The highest-spend ad of each distinct text, as it ran.

  • $10 million emergency funds will not only get the students and teachers into safe temporary structures, but are important dollars to pull down federal and other funding. It was a complicated process getting this added into the budget and I could not have done it without Superintendent Brock, the school board members, represented by Donna Isfort today, Judge Executive Donnie Watson and the entire fiscal court!

Figures cover domestic political ads paid in dollars, from 4 May 2026. 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 at our last pull; ads still running before the vote are counted as of 31 October 2026.
