Campaign Contributions, Scott Walker, and Two Dead Governors

Area donors among country's top political givers. (Green Bay Press-Gazette, 7/27/2013)

Excerpt:   Among the generous donors: 50 Northeastern Wisconsin, who gave an average of $40,000 each to federal candidates and committees. Together they cut checks totaling $2 million — 80 percent of which went to Republican candidates and committees.

Retiring Guy notes that, nationally, these 50 northeastern Wisconsin residents are part of an elite group of 31,385 individuals.....


who account for 28% of the $6 billion in contributions raised during the 2012 election cycle.


What some called fair and balanced.
