What's up with the banner ads?

I know they are a necessary evil and all that.  It's usually Star Wars related stuff and suddenly it's all California political ads.

Probably a moot point after tomorrow, but it's getting to be you have to hide in a cave  to escape the election crap for a little while. ;)

Ha, sorry. Usually the ads are related to the content of the page. The campaigns are probably paying extra for more placement though.

Are you seeing them on all topics, or just those that mention the election (the Politics thread, for example)?

I'm seeing them on the main forum list and subforums. Individual threads bring up the same old Star Wars ads.

I suspect these things are popping up based on my geographical location. Google has no shame! ;)

Well, Silver, they're gone for me now. But yes, I had them.
