After the first two or three people stop caring for a while, then you get to Super Tuesday in March which people pay some attention to. And it's usually all settled by the middle to the end of April. It's actually really annoying especially when you consider some of these people started campaigns last summer.
I'm from Ohio the swingiest of swing states which meant after about May or so, every commercial you see on TV or hear on the radio is a political ad, it's hell, haha. I would love for campaigns like Canada or the UK that are limited in time, by the time we get to about Labor Day people are so overwhelmed they just want it to be over. But, now that's I've been living in a blue state I'm actually pretty excited to not see nonstop political ads.
