Cuban among Venture Capitalists for Harris organizers

Mark Cuban

Mark Cuban and more than 500 venture capitalists have formed Venture Capitalists for Harris and signed a letter pledging their support. Among the others involved are Reid Hoffman, a founder of LinkedIn; Microsoft co-founder Stephen Wozniak and Jackson Block, CEO of LGBT+ VC.

Zynga founder Mark Pincus, a Democrat who wasn’t on board with Biden, says he is now confused but is considering supporting Harris.

The group was created after Elon Musk endorsed Trump in July and in response to large Republican donors. Former PayPal CEO David Sacks has also been raising money for the Republican nominee. Also among Trump’s top donors is Oak Lawn-based Energy Transfer LP.
