Ohio 's Senate race has become the nation's most expensive, with nearly $500 million spent on ads in this race alone.

Democrats , Republicans and outside groups have spent $483 million on ads and both parties' ad spot reservations through to Nov. 5 .

Expert: "It's too much money, it's just kind of flooding the campaign. And I think it's.. not a particularly good thing".

Super PAC megadonors often aren't residents of the state whose race their money has been used to influence.

Experts say super PAC-purchased ads present the issue of voters not knowing what the entities stand for and support based on their names alone.

The Ohio Senate race is one of the most contentious in the nation as the Democratic Party fights to retain control over the upper chamber.

They recognize that if they can defeat him for reelection, there's a very, very good chance the Republicans will control the Senate ," Beck said. "And once you control the Senate , there are all kinds of things you can do legislatively you can't do if you don't have that kind of control.".
