Comscore Launches Political Targeting Solutions for 2024 Election Season, exclusively on The Trade Desk

Proximic by Comscore, a division of Comscore, is excited to announce an expansion of our partnership with The Trade Desk with the integration of our new industry-first solution that captures TV ad exposure down to the local level and makes it available for audience targeting. These new Political TV Ad Exposure audiences are currently accessible exclusively in The Trade Desk.

Effectively driving incremental reach over linear is critical to a successful cross-channel strategy.

This new political targeting capability is an additional element of our overall suite of targeting capabilities, which includes the ability to target according to TV ad exposure at the brand and product level, TV show and Network viewership, streaming viewership, and more.

Reach extension: Marketers can suppress viewers of a candidate's linear TV ads to achieve digital and CTV incrementality

Amplify frequency: Marketers can reach viewers of a candidate's linear TV ads to increase or reduce frequency across other channels

Increase share of voice: Marketers can target audiences who have been exposed to competitor candidates' ads, to increase their own share of voice
