Less than 1% of GOP midterm ads mention Trump

Original: Less than 1% of GOP midterm ads mention Trump: What's really going on

An analysis of Republican midterm campaign advertising finds that fewer than 1% of GOP ads mention Donald Trump, a striking absence for a former president who remains influential within the party. Observers are reading the figure as a sign that candidates in competitive races are deliberately distancing themselves from Trump, betting that focusing on local issues like the economy and crime plays better with swing voters.

Why now: The near-total absence of Trump from Republican midterm advertising suggests a strategic split within the party heading into the elections.
