Crypto political group plans to spend $30 million against Sherrod Brown's Senate bid
In this news:
At the moment, polling conducted this month of 1,000 likely Ohio voters showed 48% support Brown and 45% are backing the Republican incumbent, Senator Jon Husted. And betting on Polymarket has Brown at a 57% likelihood to win.
Asked for comment on the Fairshake spending, Brown's campaign sent CoinDesk a press release it issued today that included a statement from the former senator’s campaign manager. “Jon Husted's for sale and the billionaires and corporations pouring millions into this race know it,” said Patrick Eisenhauer, the campaign manager.
Until the commitment against Brown, first reported by the New York Times, the second-biggest race for Fairshake's cash infusions was the Alabama Senate primary contest in which the super PAC committed about $12 million to get Barry Moore his nomination in a deeply Republican state in which he's expected to win the general election. But the third-highest spending was an expensive disappointment for the sector, with Fairshake having splashed out more than $10 million in failing to derail the Senate primary bid of Illinois Lt. Gov. Juliana Stratton. Stratton is also expected to win her general election race.
Fairshake has been carefully bipartisan in its support or opposition of candidates, according to the roster of campaigns it's been involved with. But the big-ticket spending has generally either gone toward supporting Republicans or opposing Democrats as the fate of the Senate is decided this year.
