Looks like this is more or less all we’ll get for a while and it’s 4am for me, so I’m going to call it a night and check back in in the morning (and send out a quick recap of tonight’s events for my newsletter subscribers: www.citationneeded.news/signup/)

All I can say is: what a wipeout for crypto & AI.

Election results: 54 of 68 general elections with crypto or AI super PAC money have been called. Three bars show the super PAC money in each kind of race, drawn to scale, and split by whether it ended up on the winning side, the losing side, or is still waiting on a call.

Competitive races, the longest bar by far: $92.4 million. Goal achieved in 2 races and failed in 9. $14.2 million was on the winning side, $74 million on the losing side, and $4.2 million is not yet called.

Likely winners: $8.3 million. Goal achieved in 2 races and failed in none. $1.3 million was on the winning side and $6.9 million is not yet called.

Backing the winners: $10.6 million. Goal achieved in 40 races and failed in none. $9.6 million was on the winning side and $976,000 is not yet called.
