Obama scales back TV ad buy in Twin Cities.

Posted at 7:45 PM on October 29, 2008 by Tom Scheck

Barack Obama's campaign has cut $100 thousand in ads that were scheduled to run on WCCO and KARE in the final week of the campaign. It's a sign that Obama is confident that he can win Minnesota. Obama still has ads running but there won't be as many as originally scheduled.

The move comes just days after Obama's GOP rival, John McCain, cut back on his ad spending at Twin Cities TV stations. Governor Pawlenty, who co-chairs the McCain campaign, said earlier this week that it would be difficult for McCain to win the state.
