Not as much as you might think. Individual campaigns are attacking opponents as we have always seen, but this election has seen a handful of ads that basically are either "vote Democrat" or "vote Republican." The Democrat ads have all been about healthcare, tax cuts for the middle class, education etc. They have (at least the ones I have seen) been pretty positive. The Republican ads make it look like Democrats are willingly letting in murderers and like there is an invasion force gathered at the border trying to get in.
In short, Democrat ads are "look what we can do for you" and Republican ads are "The Democrats will kill you and steal everything you own and only we can protect you."
