Combined with the $3.25 million Persist PAC already spent in Super Tuesday states along with $2 million in Nevada and South Carolina, the shadowy group has committed over $14 million to try to buoy Warren’s candidacy.
Her previous stance is seen in this video of her ad that allegedly ran thousands of times in Nevada.
