    More candidates are using their personal wealth to campaign than ever before. Should voters care?

    More candidates are using personal wealth to fund campaigns, with over 200 candidates contributing about $250 million this year, an eight-fold increase since 2022. Examples include Tom Steyer, who spent $213 million for governor, and Saikat Chakrabati, who contributed $9 million for Congress. The trend is linked to the 2010 Citizens United Supreme Court decision.
