It took a little more than a week for millions of dollars in campaign contributions to begin pouring into the sparsely populated state from outside, quickly flooding Montana's small broadcast markets with campaign ads, many of them decidedly negative., it's political ad after political ad after political ad," says University of Montana journalism professor Lee Banville.
Thanks SCOTUS
First time I have ever sent money to WI, Az, and Nc.

NPR notes the election influencing of Democrat donors.
Thank you, GOP, for your long and distinguished history of protecting political contributions regardless of the source...
THANK YOU TeamLightBearer : We MADE HISTORY....here in Kansas and Here in WashingtonDC --Keep VOTING Jason 'Lightbearer' Edwards for -President Lisa 'Bird' Edwards --Vice-President ThisEndsNow
This is Biden’s forte, selling his influence to big money. Why won’t NPR investigate the laptop? The FBI says it isn’t Russian disinformation and Hunter Biden doesn’t deny it’s his. It is corruption at the highest order and much less than what they think Trump did.
🔶The Republicans do not care where the money comes from. We have seen this with Mitch McConnell in Kentucky with incoming Russian money.
The Pandora's Box that was Citizen's United will never be shut again.
Yeah well when the supreme Court had a chance to change this they didn't
We as a nation are so messed up. Nobody should be able to skew a voter’s preferences with money.
An assault to the sovereignty of this country and our democracy. How we don’t have a law against it?
😡😡
Just imagine how much good that money could be doing for our local economies or nonprofit charities if people didn't feel the need to spend on political campaigns. CampaignFinanceReform
Politicians are corrupt? Who knew?
I wonder who it could be.
Who is funding this? NPR you should investigate. Who is funding JoeBiden ?
My small contributions are a part of this outside funding trend.
That’s something to be proud of.
Democracy for sale. This is the source of many of our country’s problems

Will the Libertarian vote impact the 2020 election? Experts don't expect repeat of 2016 spoilersOne expert described the 2020 race as a choice of 'yes or no on the incumbent rather than going outside of that and looking for a third option.' wouldn't that be nice, imagine more than 2 parties. Maybe then congress would have to learn true compromise versus the current mentality of executive order temp legislation on everything. Maybe then it would be less likely to see riders on bills too. It’s almost like they weren’t included in any of the polls to prevent debate. Most of the people I know don’t even realize there are more than two parties. News Weak is a part of the problem.

Trump, Biden favorability unchanged as 2020 race heads into final week: POLLAfter two contentious debates and more than $1.5 billion in advertising, President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden enter the closing week of a bitter campaign with their favorability ratings relatively unchanged since at least the summer, according to an ABC News/Ipsos poll released Superspreader Trump.... 230,000 Dead Americans 1000 Dead Americans per DAY 85,000 New Cases per DAY TRUMPS America....and he still holds Rallies? Trump hates MAGAts Jo Biden is not running. Yahoo is running for him. Joe biden just forgot who he was running against in a interview. He is not campaigning and there is only a week to go. Trump brought us in to the pandemic and the recession. He could easily have prevented both by demonstrating some leadership instead of demonstrating retaliation. Trump is a catastrophic failure. He is not intelligent or compassionate.

For transgender advocates, election stokes hopes and fears'President Trump intends to use the full power of the presidency and the executive branch to inflict maximum damage' on trans people, one activist said. NBCOUT Out of everything mentioned in his article, the vague “removing protections of discrimination” towards trans people was the only legit claim. And even then, once again, its a broad claim with no specifics. NBCOUT Vote for America NBCOUT Do you know what Canada has that you do not? We have transgender commentators on our national TV news networks. Men wearing lipstick and nail polish and it makes me a proud Canadian. Maybe they are women now and I've failed to acknowledge it.

Biden says Trump can win because of 'how he plays'Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden says President Donald Trump can still win the 2020 election because delegitimizing the race's outcome is 'how he plays.' 5) Anyone who look upon this issue with some neutral view can understand who is the aggressor in this issue. Just waiting to see if the Boston ballot box arsonist is tied to the administration. How people think Trump will be stupid enough to be involved in election fraud?
