I would imagine that they're treating this as a spammed feature. (Too many people have marked as this) They do have an obligation to let it finish out it's spend.

For a while (for me) YouTube removed the “stop seeing this ad” option, though it is back now. Perhaps I clicked it too much.

These days I get the same very broadly targeted ads every time which I guess means YouTube doesn’t know much about me, which is good

If you pay Google $10/mo or whatever the going rate is, you get ad-free Youtube. It's worth it for a family using one account.

It's possible political ads have separate rules, I could see some common features being disabled in the name of "fairness".
