With today's midterm elections slated to be the most expensive in history, the New York Post reports that "celebrities have poured $13 million on candidates in this two-year campaign cycle, with the vast majority of it going to Democratic candidates."

Steven Spielberg led the pack, donating tens of thousands of dollars to Democrats across the country. He also gave $100,000 to Senate Majority PAC. Oprah Winfrey gave $26,000 to help support Cory Booker, who is running for Senate in New Jersey. Booker also garnered monetary support from the likes of Matt Damon and Ben Affleck.
