“The vast amounts of money involved in US elections are truly horrific given the extreme level of need for money around the world”
Annelle Sheline, a former State Department official who resigned in protest of the Biden administration’s policy on Gaza, tells TRT World that Democrats should urgently call for campaign finance reform.
With an estimated $12 billion spent, the 2026 midterms have been described as the most expensive elections in US history.
“That being said, this massive amount of money we saw coming in from the Israel lobby, from Elon Musk, from other powerful special interest groups was largely unsuccessful,” Sheline added.
