Cutting losses in the millions trying to buy extreme leftist DA's[SanDiegoUnionTribune] A political action committee funded by billionaire George Soros that has pumped hundreds of thousands of dollars into the campaign of Genevieve Jones-Wright for district attorney canceled all of its planned television advertising Wednesday for the candidate, just six days before voters go to the polls.
The move by the California Justice & Public Safety PAC, confirmed by two local television station managers, is a blow to the Jones-Wright campaign in the run-up to election day. The PAC had been running saturation-level
(yes)
television advertisements for the past several weeks over county airwaves.
The commercials were polished

Jones-Wright, a deputy public defender who is running on a platform calling for reforms in the criminal justice system, was one of four DA races that the PAC had thrown its support behind in California. On May 3, Soros contributed $1.5 million to the PAC, which is backing candidates in Sacramento, Alameda and Contra Costa counties as well.
The PAC immediately spent more than $400,000 on advertising and mailers supporting Jones-Wright, and more has been deployed for her campaign in the succeeding weeks. The most recent campaign disclosure report filed with the secretary of state showed the PAC had spent $848,853.50 in support of her campaign through May 19 - the largest sum of any of the four candidates the PAC was backing.
On Wednesday a spokesman for California Justice & Public Safety PAC declined several requests to comment on the ad cancellations.
I'm not a great fan of Stephan, but when the other choice is a paid SJW destroyer of Soros? I'll be crawling across the proverbial broken glass to vote
