Bloomberg and Steyer $200m spend on TV ads – but will it pay off?
The two billionaires in the Democratic race for president are flooding the airwaves but polls have yet to show a benefit
Low-polling billionaire presidential candidates Mike Bloomberg and Tom Steyer have spent a collective $200m on political advertising in the 2020 election race – with the first state votes for the Democratic nomination still six weeks away.
Of the two, financial data mogul Bloomberg is firmly ahead, with the former New York mayor spending a record $120m since he formally joined the contest.
