Senate Race Seen as Referendum on Crypto Policy

Deaton and incumbent Senator Elizabeth Warren have clashed over digital asset policies during debates. Warren has accused Deaton of being beholden to the crypto industry due to his campaign funding. Deaton has countered that Warren is overly focused on crypto regulation compared to other key issues.

Contributions from Ripple Executives

Garlinghouse, Ripple co-founder Chris Larsen, and Ripple’s chief legal officer have all donated directly to Deaton’s campaign. Ripple is also a major contributor to a PAC supporting Deaton. This has led many to see Ripple executives unanimously backing Deaton against crypto-skeptic Warren.

Massachusetts Senate Race Polls

With less than two weeks until the election, Warren holds a sizable lead over Deaton in polls. However, Ripple executives remain staunchly supportive of Deaton’s long-shot bid.

Ripple’s Complex Political Donations

While donating to Deaton, Larsen has also pledged millions in XRP to a PAC supporting Democratic VP candidate Kamala Harris. This illustrates Ripple making donations across party lines to support crypto-friendly candidates.

Conclusion

The Massachusetts Senate race is being seen as a referendum on crypto policy. Ripple executives have firmly aligned themselves with Deaton against Warren despite the odds against him. Their political donations reveal a strategy of bipartisan outreach to back crypto-friendly lawmakers.
