Dallas: Texas-sized TV spending

A hotly contested Texas governor’s race is sparking big political ad spending in Dallas, where local media buyers say TV and radio inventories area already tight.

Attorney General Greg Abbott (R-TX) and State Senator Wendy Davis (D-District 10) will face off in November for the governor’s seat, after each won their primary elections on March 4. There will be a huge amount of spending leading up to the fall election, just as there was before the primaries.
