    October 18, 2014

    If you've been watching television at all of late, you might have noticed that there are elections coming up given the proliferation of political ads appearing.

    A company, Echelon Insights, analyzed more than $1 billion in political spending and 2.6 million political ads, breaking it down into Republican and Democrat ad buys, the Daily Signal reports.

    What it found is that Golf Channel is the cable leader in percentage of political ads placed by Republicans, 92.71 percent, even higher than Fox News (83.85 percent). Democrats, meanwhile, preferred E!, with 93.69 percent of the political ads, higher even than MSNBC (84.58 percent).
