Political strategist says it could take a while before ads are removed from TV stations' programming schedule.

Bob Casey's campaign said it started asking TV stations to stop its negative ads Saturday night, two days before Republican challenger Dave McCormick proposed that the campaigns stop negative ads following the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump in Butler County on Saturday.Republican U.S. Senate candidate Dave McCormick’s proposal to Sen.
“On Saturday evening after the shooting, the Casey campaign worked with stations to stop advertising temporarily,” said Maddy McDaniel, spokesperson for the campaign. “The campaign will work to resume communication with voters in the days ahead to educate Pennsylvanians on Senator Casey’s record, his opponent’s record and the stakes of this Senate race.”
Mike Mikus, a Democratic strategist near Pittsburgh, said halting TV ads is a cumbersome process made worse by the Trump shooting happening on a weekend when TV stations’ business offices are closed.
