ATLANTA — Days after Stacey Abrams qualified to run for governor in March, a super PAC funded by billionaire megadonor George Soros put $1 million into her campaign, according to campaign finance reports.
Soros, a common target of criticism from Republicans for his vast spending on Democratic causes over the years, donated the money through the Democracy PAC II to One Georgia.
One Georgia is Abrams' leadership committee. U.S. District Judge Mark Cohen ruled last month that Abrams could not raise money through a leadership committee until she wins her party's nomination later this month. Abrams is running unopposed in the Democratic primary.
