According to the Center for Responsive Politics, "spending by organizations that do not disclose their donors has increased from less than $5.2 million in 2006 to well over $300 million in the 2012 presidential cycle and more than $174 million in the 2014 midterms."〔 The'' New York Times'' editorial board has opined that the 2014 midterm elections were influenced by "the greatest wave of secret, special-interest money ever raised in a congressional election."〔Editorial, (Dark Money Helped Win the Senate ), ''New York Times'' (November 8, 2014).〕
