Can you please provide specifics?

Where do these ads appear? On the page or as pop-ups?

NICOclub isn't hurting.

Not as popups just top and bottom of pages.Also showing up on BMW, Toyota forums sites as well. Lexus and Mercedes haven't, so far, have not fallen for the garbage.

Must just be California then.

Searching the Web and looks like mainly the "joe six pack/plumber" forums are being pegged.

Someone, maybe from Utah/Arizona, has big bucks going into this thing.

I think you're referring to the "Google Ads" (just above the first post and just below the last post in a thread).

NICO has some influence over what shows up in those sections, but in a "after the fact" manner and it usually takes a couple days for any Ads to be blocked. My guess is by the time we could request the Political ones be removed, they'll be gone on their own.

I've yet to see any. My guess is Google is targeting them demographically. So, Cali would be high on the list.

Yeah, we in the solid Red states just get crap from K&N and eBay motors.

Only the Reppublic of Kalifornia seems to be so lucky.

So looks like Lexus and Mercedes Forums have the Yes on 8 ads. All RV sites and fishing sites, even Clairol for men is running them. Even VW Phaeton. These guys are desperate.

The Google boys have just not put enough money into the No on 8.I hear they Sergi etc. are working on an admendment to ban divorce in CA. The lawyers will kill em.

If we lose out here.. cocktails and possum soup for is on me for ALLeveryone.
