Is this backlash related to the "Correct the Record" group or did the Republican campaign also mount a similar offensive that I'm unaware of?

IIRC Palmer Lucky, the guy behind Oculus Rift setup his own CTR like company, without any connection to Donald Trump.

Do you have any articles about it? A quick search only found that he attempted to start one and Trump supporters rejected the idea. I'm curious how much he spent compared to CTR's 4.5 million.
