Billionaire George Soros continues to be active in Arkansas politics this summer.

In June, Soros gave $9,088.31 to the Democratic Party of Arkansas, according to documents filed with the Arkansas Secretary of State’s Office last month.

Soros previously gave $321,000 in April to the Arkansas Justice & Public Safety PAC — an independent expenditure committee based in Washington, D.C. — to support Alicia Walton for prosecuting attorney in Pulaski and Perry counties; Walton lost the election to Will Jones in May.

Soros is known for promoting leftwing policies such as marijuana legalization.

As far as Family Council can tell, this is the first time that George Soros has shown a direct interest in elections in Arkansas.
