SBF’s Protect Our Future PAC has put more than $7M towards Flynn’s campaign. I think this is what _pk and others are concerned about, not direct donations. And this is what most people concerned with “buying elections” are concerned about. (This is what the Citizens United controversy is about.)
Thanks for the replies. This is exactly what I meant: Flynn likely wouldn’t be within striking distance without the firehose of ads provided by SBF’s super pacs. A really large % of the spending in the race is being provided by a single individual.
Thanks for pointing this out, wasn’t aware of that, sorry for the mistake. I have retracted my comment.
