Michael Bloomberg will air a 60-second, anti-Donald Trump ad during the Super Bowl on February 2, a spokesperson for the former New York Mayor tells CNN. The 60-second spot could cost the Bloomberg campaign upwards of $10 million - based on what Fox is asking for each spot. — PolitiTweet.org

For the first time, hospitality and casino workers will have four locations to cast early ballots in February. One of those sites will be a 24-hour location, allowing casino employees who work overnight to cast ballots throughout the night. https://t.co/Tac9rtbPci — PolitiTweet.org

New: Nevada Dems will offer casino and hospitality workers on the Las Vegas Strip a host of locations to cast their ballots during the February caucuses, further demonstrating the power the state's Culinary Union wields in the NV caucuses. Our story: https://t.co/Tac9rtbPci — PolitiTweet.org

The four ads - which roll out less than a month before the Iowa caucuses - signal how the former South Bend mayor's campaign believes different messages may work better in each early state, as opposed to one steadfast message repeated in each market. — PolitiTweet.org

And in SC, Buttigieg will lean on his support among black South Bend residents to do something he has failed to do so far: Win over black support in South Carolina. Buttigieg barely speaks in this ad and instead features four black supporters from IN: https://t.co/AGV6JAGmCo — PolitiTweet.org

Voters in Nevada will also hear Buttigieg attack polarization, but this time in the context of Medicare for All. “We ought to unify Americans around these solutions or nothing will actually get done," he says. Here is “Ready”: https://t.co/qhqzpLHQSz — PolitiTweet.org

By comparison, voters in New Hampshire will begin seeing a spot focused on Buttigieg's service in the Navy Reserve that decries partisanship and division - a frequent line of attack Buttigieg uses against Warren. Here is “Only Way”: https://t.co/h5obXNQZYO — PolitiTweet.org

The Iowa spot focuses on economic inequality, showing Buttigieg decrying that "workers have to work multiple jobs just to hold on to what they've got, while corporations making billions of dollars are paying zero in taxes." Here is “Windshield”: https://t.co/lp2uE6CKFo — PolitiTweet.org

New: Buttigieg will begin airing four distinct ads in the early-nominating states, tailoring a message ranging from income inequality to his “Medicare for All" opposition to his support from black South Bend residents to audiences in IA, NH, NV and SC https://t.co/hbRYDNhqZG — PolitiTweet.org

Good pick up for Warren, but a largely unsurprising move by Castro, who regularly went after his 2020 opponents but never went after the MA senator. Castro in November: "She is fantastic. I think she has done a very impressive job on the campaign trail." — PolitiTweet.org

Buttigieg, asked by @jaketapper about the term "assassination," said he is "not interested in the terminology, I am interested in the consequences and the process." Later notes how "more people at Mar A Lago heard about this" before the strike than members of Congress. — PolitiTweet.org
