Spending on abortion-related advertising soared following the leak of the Supreme Court draft option, according to an analysis released late today by competitive ad tracking firm AdImpact.

"Since the beginning of the year, we had seen an average of about 2,000 airings a week relating to abortion," the analysis notes, adding, "After the leaked draft, that changed dramatically, peaking last week at nearly 20,000 airings."
