according to Center for Responsive Politics. Bloomberg helped at least one Repub candidate in 2018 while Steyers $$$ went all to Dems and liberals. Other groups associated with Bloomberg also contributed another $20 million or so in 2018 to help Dems.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
