No matter which Wilmington, Delaware area television station or cable channel adults tune to in 2022, they can expect to be assaulted by a deluge of political advertising. Often entire commercial breaks are stuffed with back-to-back pleas and promises to secure viewers' votes.

But is advertising on Philadelphia stations like WDPN, WPPX, KYW, WCAU, or WHYY the most effective way to reach likely voters in the Wilmington area? Or is advertising on cable channels provided by Xfinity, DISH, DirecTV, and Verizon FIOS the way to go?

The answer is neither. According to research from Nielsen, the best way to reach local adults who are most likely to vote is by advertising on Wilmington radio.

Every week, 327,000 likely voters will listen to Wilmington radio stations. This is significantly more than watch local TV, cable, and streaming video. More that use social media and streaming audio. More than will read newspapers.
