Zynga Founder Mark Pincus Backed Biden - Now Wants Someone Else

Dow Jones07-16

By Dana Mattioli

In December, technology founder Mark Pincus wrote a $929,600 check -- the largest amount allowed -- to the Biden Victory Fund. Today, the Zynga founder is pushing for other Democrats to challenge President Biden's re-election campaign.

"The attack on Trump and his brave reaction has only magnified the challenge for Biden," said Pincus to The Wall Street Journal. "It feels like the Dems have little to lose and everything to gain with an open convention where they could field a stronger candidate against Trump and his increasingly energized base," he said.
