In total, Soros cash has generously supported dozens of left-wing candidates, and at least 30 won their elections and remain in office today.
Soros has spent a combined $6 million on California DA races, much of it wasted on failed candidates, but almost half was spent on the successful campaign of George Gascon for Los Angles DA. Soros was the largest spender in the race, and Gascon won easily.
Probably the most famous Soros-backed DA, Foxx was boosted into office with the help of $2 million in Soros cash.
Another of the newest Soros DAs, Sartoris won office in 2022 after an injection of $300,000 from the Maine Justice and Public Safety PAC helped her defeat a longtime incumbent.
Although his ties to Soros are less well known and his ideas are slightly less radical, Albuquerque's former DA also got his start from $107,000 in Soros cash that boosted his unopposed campaign in 2016.
Among the most famous Soros-backed DAs, Krasner has been supported by more than $2 million from Soros funneled through the Pennsylvania Justice and Public Safety PAC and the Philadelphia Justice and Public Safety PAC. Krasner was reelected in 2021 with the help of a $259,000 contribution from Soros.
Biberaj's campaign in 2019 was boosted by over $650,000 in Soros cash, and she has since been thrown off a robbery case by the judge for "Deliberately misleading the court" and has been caught using government resources to investigate her political opponents and journalists that were critical of her office.
