Democrats spending more on Spanish-language presidential ads

Spending on Spanish-language presidential primary campaign advertising has already surpassed the sum four years ago and shows no sign of slowing, according to a study released Wednesday.

Democratic rivals Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama have spent more than $4 million targeting Spanish-speaking primary voters and likely will blanket swing states such as Ohio, New Mexico and Pennsylvania for November’s general election, according to the Hispanic Voter Project at Johns Hopkins University. Republican Sen. John McCain, meanwhile, isn’t conceding the airwaves on the way to his party’s nomination and aired a Spanish-language ad last week in New Mexico aimed at the general election.”*
