Silicon Valley’s AI cash is flooding California Democrats’ marketing campaign coffers just days before voters head to the polls.

The greatest payday went to the California Democratic Party, which pocketed a whopping $525,000. Another $150,000 went to an unbiased statewide get-out-the-vote group, while 5 Democratic organizations in San Francisco, San Mateo, Orange, Fresno and Siskiyou counties each collected $45,000.
