We don't really know what the split was. SBF has claimed he donated significantly more to the republicans. From your link above:
The GOP donations were "dark-money" contributions, making his claim difficult to verify. Such secret contributions, allowed by the Supreme Court’s 2010 Citizens
United ruling, wouldn’t show up in the FEC disclosures used to compile MarketWatch’s list
- bhelkey 3y ago> SBF has claimed I put little weight on the words of a convicted fraudster who is in jail awaiting sentencing.

- bhelkey 3y agoIf he primarily donated to one party, the donations advance Sam's political views. If he equally donated to both parties, the donations advance FTX's interests. I believe that Sam would advance his own interests then lie to make himself appear neutral.
- grumpyprole 3y agoYes I concede this is possible too.
