Original Note:
While SBF did spend slightly under $40M, most of that were in primaries. 25% went to a single race to attack an incumbent Dem for a family friend. He pledged to spend $1B in 2024 not 2022 and that is unlikely. Since 2010, there has been $1B total in dark money spent. https://www.opensecrets.org/news/2022/11/megadonor-no-more-sam-bankman-fried-spent-his-way-into-the-good-graces-of-washington-then-lost-it-all/ https://www.forbes.com/sites/billybambrough/2022/12/03/elon-musk-reveals-wild-1-billion-democrat-donation-theory-after-bitcoin-and-crypto-exchange-collapse/
