If we take the 2022 House races, republican's House PAC received $79 million from 42 billionaires or their spouses, while democrat's House PAC received only $20 million from 17 billionaires or their spouses.
The numbers might play a little differently if you look at all donations to party affiliated PACs and individual campaigns but it doesn't seem like it reverses the overall trend.
