Crypto Super PAC Fairshake spends over $46 million to oppose Ohio Sen. Sherrod Brown
An FEC filing dated Oct. 15 shows Fairshake affiliate Defend American Jobs disclosed a $5.2 million media buy against Ohio Democrat Sherrod Brown, followed by another roughly $1.95 million purchase and related production costs, bringing its total spending to about $46.66 million. The filing also lists parallel spending supporting Brown’s Republican opponent Jon Husted. Fairshake had previously signaled a $30 million target against Brown, which it has now exceeded. The PAC, funded largely by Coinbase, Ripple and Andreessen Horowitz, entered September with roughly $120 million in cash and expects to spend more than $100 million across House and Senate races this cycle.
