What did Harris and Trump direct these funds to

As the journalists managed to find out, about 50% of the mentioned sums were spent on advertising, especially in seven states that are considered key to the election results.

The Harris campaign spent more than $1 billion on advertising in those states, while the combined spending of both campaigns on advertising in the swing regions was almost $1.5 billion. In particular, more than $400 million was spent in Pennsylvania alone, where 19 electoral votes are at stake.

It is also worth paying attention to the fact that a significant part of Trump's campaign budget was allocated to legal expenses related to his lawsuits.

According to the latest data, it took more than 100 million, which is 14% of all expenses.
