I found that linked post from Scott Alexander quite interesting, but it seems like the numbers are no longer up to date. The paper he cites is from 2003. I think the political landscape has changed quite a bit since then. If I had to guess, I’d say political donations have become larger. It would be interesting to see more recent figures and if these are still small for their impact.
