A combination of your location, the upcoming election and recent discussions on politics showing up in threads. I'm in Canada and haven't seen any. They should go away in a week or so.

ok, so the real question is why did you ignore the multiple requests that you help us get rid of the political ads in your other thread on this subject?

executive summary: if anyone sees an ad that is objectionable or political, please take a screenshot and post a thread in the user assistance forum.
