2. Well, yeah. But I do live in Boston, after all.
And our media market here blankets New Hampshire and big parts of Connecticut, Rhode Island, and slivers of Maine as well.

6. No in Bakersfield, CA
And I've yet to see any McCain bumper stickers. I've seen more than a few Obama stickers.

And Bakersfield voted for Bush with more than 60% of the vote.

8. Los Angeles... nope.
I don't expect to see too much. We never get much of the presidential ones, as the Dems know they have Los Angeles and the rethugs know it will be a waste of their money anyway. I have seen one, a McSame ad, but that was on CNN, and it was literally three months ago.

That is one good thing about Los Angeles, we don't get a ton of the election ads. We do get the iniative ads, and I suspect with the bigots trying to tear apart families with the Constitutional Amendment to discriminate against gay people, we'll get ads. But in my area of LA, they'd be stupid to run the ads in favor of the Amendment, as we live in an extremly liberal part of Los Angeles. Four churches within walking distance of me are all fighting for and have been marrying gay couples. That ad here would be a waste of time.

17. None to speak of
course, I doubt that many of them make a habit of advertising on the food network.
