DEL.ICIO.USPresidential wallets: Who’s raising how much from Georgia
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
The Center for Responsive Politics made a database available today that shows how much money each presidential candidate has received from individual states, our colleague Bob Kemper in Washington tells us.
And the surprise is Barack Obama. Or, after last Saturday’s rally, perhaps it’s not such a surprise.
Obama received more money from Georgia donors than any other candidate for president, Democrat or Republican. He has milked nearly $478,000 from the solidly red state, most of it from metro Atlanta.
Next comes Republican Mitt Romney, who has raised $401,161 — nearly four times as much Georgia money as the next GOP candidate, John McCain.
Democrat John Edwards comes in third.
Here’s the entire Democratic list:
U.S. Sen. Barack Obama: $477,760
Former U.S. senator John Edwards: $376,845
U.S. Sen. Hillary Clinton: $81,925
New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson: $76,250
U.S. Sen. Joseph Biden: $8,650
U.S. Sen. Chris Dodd: $7,600
