It's the teachers unions paying for the advertising.  Their motives
are rather simple: make sure their power isn't threatened (individual
teachers care about students, but the teachers' unions have
continually acted against them).

They don't have nearly as much money to burn as the unions do.
They'll be starting their commercials a week or so before the
election, and a few commercials in selected areas before then.
