It turns out that casino executive Sheldon Adelson and his wife Miriam poured more money into Mitt Romney’s losing presidential bid than was initially reported.
In the weeks before the Nov. 6 election, the Adelsons contributed another $10 million between them to the super-political action committee backing Romney — Restore Our Future — according to new Federal Election Commission reports.
That brought their total contributions to the super-PAC to $30 million.
The Adelsons earlier gave $15 million to the super-PAC supporting one of Romney’s Republican primary opponent, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, and overall contributed more than $65 million to outside groups for the 2012 election.
