That is an increase of almost $100 million in the past four weeks.</p><p>That total includes local broadcast TV, national network and national cable (no local cable). It also includes ads that mention a candidate but do not overtly call for his or her election or defeat. It only counts ones that have run, not future ad buys.</p><p>So far 372,200 ads have run.</p><p>The following are the top nine states in Senate TV ad spending.</p><p>1. North Carolina        $46.6 million</p><p>2. Georgia                  $34 million</p><p>3. Colorado                 $30 million</p><p>4. Michigan                 $28.9 million</p><p>5. Kentucky                $27.9 million</p><p>6. Iowa                        $23.8 million</p><p>7. Arkansas                $21.8 million</p><p>8. Louisiana                $21.6 million</p><p>9. Virginia                   $10.1 million</p>
