Adelson Leaning Towards Endorsing Rubio

Sheldon Adelson “is leaning increasingly toward supporting Marco Rubio — and the Florida senator is racing to win the backing of other uncommitted megadonors who have the potential to direct tens of millions of dollars his way and alter the contours of the Republican primary fight,” Politico reports.

“Last week, during a campaign swing through Las Vegas, Rubio held a meeting in Adelson’s offices… A formal endorsement, they said, could come as soon as the end of the month — and with it, the potential for a multimillion dollar contribution. With a net worth of $25.7 billion, according to Forbes, Adelson can afford to spend freely.”
