I voted third party for my congressional rep. I have the privilege of living in a solid blue district and I did it is a protest, but also because I like the candidate more than the blue candidate. I voted for my favored candidate in the primary, but she lost to a heavily AIPAC funded candidate. I disagree with Israel’s actions and the amount of foreign money in domestic elections. I’ve told very few people this, whether in person or online - more than anything I want it to represent statistical dissent. I would never consider my vote if there were an even remote possibility of the right winger taking the seat.
That is true. I say this because there is money that flows in through intermediaries(though still illegal, undoubtedly happens), but I also incorrectly conflated monetary support for foreign interests with money from foreign entities - my apology.

Foreign money in US elections is illegal. Is AIPAC money coming from Israel? Seems doubtful, as a lot of money flows from the US to Israel already.
Foreign money in US elections used to be illegal. A law that isn’t getting enforced isn’t a real law.
American jews give aipac a veneer but make no mistake it is a foreign agent.
