Will billionaire election spending end the Democratic majority on the Pennsylvania Supreme Court? [View all]

According to the Philadelphia Inquirer, Dougherty claimed that Musk has already spent $1 million on the upcoming race at an endorsement meeting earlier this year, but campaign finance reports for the upcoming election won’t be available until September. But he’s not the only one with deep pockets and a desire to oust Democrats.

Jeffrey Yass — Pennsylvania’s richest billionaire with a net worth of $59 billion thanks to his investments in TikTok — is poised to spend millions of dollars against the three Democratic justices.

Yass has spent over $75 million on elections in Pennsylvania since 2017, making him the largest spender in Pennsylvania politics during that time, according to All Eyes on Yass, a website dedicated to tracking his spending.

Last year, Yass spent over $11 million through his network of political action committees (PACs) supporting Attorney General Dave Sunday’s campaign against former Auditor General Eugene DePasquale.
