Crypto PAC Fails to Unseat Gilbert | Bitcoin and Crypto News
Description
Crypto super PAC Fairshake poured over $2 million into a failed bid to unseat Miami-Dade Commissioner Oliver Gilbert in a Florida Democratic primary — but Gilbert still won, thanks to strong local support. The campaign’s tactics drew fire for using fake Miami Herald headlines, and while Fairshake backed other successful candidates across Florida, Alaska, and Wyoming — including Senate win Harriet Hageman — the Gilbert loss is a blow to crypto lobbying. Despite controversy, Fairshake claims a 92% win rate this cycle and remains undeterred, pushing forward with its strategy to build pro-crypto influence in Congress.
