Democrats Retain Edge in Campaign Spending




Even though there was a large fund supporting Republican candidates, the Democratic Party outspent the Republican Party in this mid-term election. However, the Democratic Party is still in a worrying shape.

I think it very interesting because voters are not guided by commercials and slogans as much, instead, they became more realistic. Therefore, there is a split between campaign strategy in terms of fundraising and voters' attitude. I think, in this way, the influence brought by the spending on campaign is restricted to the political circle - people who understand politics and care about politics. The scope of fundraising influence is narrower.
