Facebook released new information Tuesday about the political ads that appear on its site, days after a New York Times report raised concerns about the rigor of the tech giant’s method for tracking them.

Facebook’s “Ad Archive” catalogs ads about politics or “issues of national importance,” who sponsored them, and how much those sponsors have spent since May. According to the company’s analysis, since the spring, advertisers have spent more than $256 million to push political ads out to users. Facebook archived about 1.7 million political or issue advocacy ads in that time.

In order to do so, when an advertiser categorizes an ad as being related to politics or an issue of national importance, it must disclose who paid for the ad, Facebook said.

But that claim was contradicted when a Times reporter dug into who sponsored anonymous ads that called Jennifer Wexton, the Democratic candidate for Virginia’s 10th District, an “evil socialist” and depicted her alongside Nazi soldiers. The reporter uncovered a glaring loophole: Sponsors of political ads can fill in the disclaimer field with whatever text they want, even if it does not correspond to the name of the Facebook user or page, nor does the site verify that the sponsors of political ads are registered with the Federal Election Commission.

Despite its flaws, Facebook’s analysis offers an interesting snapshot of who’s spending the most for your attention. Facebook’s analysis shows as the midterm elections approached, many of the top spenders were high-profile candidates such as Rep. Beto O’Rourte in Texas and well-known advocacy groups like Planned Parenthood. But dark money groups and plain hucksters punched above their weight.
