Bill Gates has joined other mega-rich donors like Mark Cuban by pushing tens of millions of dollars into the coffers of Kamala Harris' campaign.

Harris has repeatedly bragged of the largesse she's gotten from donations, to the tune of $222 million alone in September, according to Forbes, and over $1 billion since her campaign began.

Trump has countered with support from the likes of Elon Musk, who has given tens of millions of his own money to PACs supporting Trump and is now giving out $1 million checks to registered voters.

Now, it has been revealed that Gates has given $50 million to a non-profit supporting the vice president.

Gates, like his former wife Melinda French Gates, has largely avoided partisan politics while running the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.

Melinda said earlier this month her split from Gates and their massive philanthropic ventures led her to speak out on political topics - as their children are developing into major players in Democratic politics.
