Nearly every story before this on HN was "he gave to republicans too!" yet the numbers you show is that he gave less than 1% to republics, and >99% of it to Democrats. I guess anyone who wants to be considered bi-partisan can just throw a few dollars at the other party now
- bogomipz 4y agoIt looks like the Republican's that he gave to were moderate Republicans like Lisa Murkowski and Susan Collins and so likely part of the same overall strategy. Moderates are outliers in the party as they aren't afraid not to vote along strict party lines. If you look at the infographic on the WSJ article though I think it's much more telling of FTX's bi-partisan influence: SBF gave $35.9 million to liberal groups Ryan Salame gave $21.6 million Conservative groups Both of those are large numbers.
