Mike Bloomberg Spent $80M to Support Democrats Ahead of Midterm Elections
Former New York Mayor Mike Bloomberg spent $80 million between September and October supporting Democratic candidates ahead of the November midterm elections, according to The New York Times. His contributions are part of a broader effort by Democrats to regain control of the House of Representatives. Political advisors have stated that Bloomberg believes resources play an important role in campaign success. President Donald Trump has pledged $400 million for Republican candidates during this election cycle and reiterated his commitment on social media following reports about Bloomberg's spending. Analysts suggest that Democrats are likely to gain control of the House, with polls showing them within reach of a Senate majority as well. As of now, FEC records show Bloomberg had already contributed $23 million to Democratic causes in 2025-2026 election cycle.
