Elon Musk has contributed more than $275 million in recent months to help Republicans retain control of Congress in the upcoming U.S. midterm elections, according to The New York Times. A spokesperson confirmed the donations on Monday, noting that some funds have not yet appeared in campaign finance records. Musk donated $158 million this summer to the Senate Leadership Fund, which supports Republican Senate candidates, and directed tens of millions of dollars into America PAC, a committee he founded. The PAC has launched campaign advertisements across multiple states and targeted at least a dozen competitive House seats as key advertising priorities.
