, $1.45 million isn't much money — a rounding error on the billions in revenue the retail giant brings in every year. Apply that $1.45 million to the Seattle City Council elections, however, and it's a far more significant sum.

And that PAC financially backed Sawant's opponent, Egan Orion, who received over $400,000 in campaign contributions.
