Bernie Sanders' campaign is outspending former New York senator Hillary Clinton over New York's airwaves by a 2-to-1 margin. The date is from ad-spending data firm SMG Delta.

The Sanders campaign has spent $5.6 million on ads in the Empire State, versus $2.8 million for the Clinton campaign. The Republican side has seen significantly less spending: John Kasich's campaign and Super PAC have spent $480,000 over the airwaves, while Ted Cruz and his groups have doled out $467,000. Donald Trump has spent just $67,000 on ads in the state.

Didn't get a very good return on investment, did he? Maybe Bern's campaign needs a shake-up...

1. The Bernie Bros are going to be broke by June!

What a waste.

[Surya Gayatri]

3. Political malfeasance of the worst sort--Weaver and Devine are taking

the campaign and its foolish first-time voters for all they're worth. Scandalous deception.

2. Yet according to Bernie Sanders

Hillary's the big money establishment candidate.

4. The hypocrisy--it BERNS!

5. One thing I'm glad she lost! BS is literally throwing money away!

Great News, thank you, Surya!

6. Trying to get this in Home-page trending. Can you Rec it up in Video/Multimedia?

Thanks!

7. Sure! I didn't even notice the link before, sorry .. thank you for the heads up!

8. From the start, campaigns cost lots of money, maybe too much money

But ads cost lots of money, maybe he can look back and see ads are not free.

12. But, but, he's the N° 1 campaigner AGAINST big money in politics. Or, so he says...

[Thinkingabout]

13. Interesting, maybe "judgement" is off the mark.

[NurseJackie]

9. Quality vs quantity in that regard. And ...

... also with regard to voters. There's a big difference between attending a rally and actually voting... and being an actual DEMOCRAT who's eligible and registered to vote.

10. In WI, Bernie outspent Hillary well over 2-1 but only won 10 more delegates then HRC there

[Thinkingabout]

14. NC was early and a big difference, spending lots of money is not

Buying the votes.

[liberal N proud]

11. Sounds like she actually won that game

Won the state and spent less doing it.

I don't see how anyone but the BS campaign can see that as a loss.

15. I didn't write the headline, but I believe it's intended to be a bit ironic?

[IamMab]

16. Irony alert: the "money buys elections" candidate is spending more and still losing.

Delicious.

17. There he goes again. Enriching the corporatocracy by padding Big Media pockets
