   Lol! Fuck you gronk.  You ignorant math challenged lying cunt.   
      
   (CNN)Democrats have denounced anonymous money in politics for   
   years, but 2020 brought a tidal wave of it into the election to   
   benefit their party.   
      
   More than $320 million of so-called "dark money" helped boost   
   Democrats in the White House and congressional races -- more   
   than double the anonymous dollars that aided Republicans in this   
   year's federal elections, a new analysis shows.   
      
   A top beneficiary: President-elect Joe Biden. Nearly $132   
   million in anonymous money backed his White House bid, compared   
   to nearly $22 million to aid President Donald Trump, according   
   to an analysis by the Center for Responsive Politics for CNN.   
      
   The analysis by the center defines dark money as donations and   
   spending by nonprofits that do not disclose the sources of the   
   money. It also includes money flowing into politics from limited   
   liability corporations operating as shell companies.   
      
   The trend toward Democrats is a stark reversal from previous   
   presidential election cycles in which dark money overwhelmingly   
   boosted Republicans.   
      
   The new figures come as candidates, political parties and   
   outside groups, including those funded by nonprofits that   
   conceal their donors -- unleash a fresh wave of spending in   
   Georgia to influence two US Senate runoffs that will determine   
   which party controls the chamber. More than $287 million already   
   had been booked on television ad buys in the state through   
   Wednesday, according to a CNN tally of advertising data   
   collected by Kantar's Campaign Media Analysis Group.
