At the HuffPo, Seth Colter Walls went through Barack Obama’s June fundraising report, finding that only eight of Hillary Clinton’s 311 “Hillraisers” ($100K+ Clinton bundlers) gave money to Obama in June. Moreover, the total they gave was a paltry $19,250.  Furthermore, only a few Hillraisers gave to the DNC or its Victory Fund in June.ÂÂ
Walls adds that several dozen more Hillraisers are rumored to have donated in July; some have hosted fundraisers for Obama. The Washington Post’s The Trail blog did their own analysis, with a broader scope:
More than 2,200 Clinton donors became first-time Obama donors, giving him $1.8 million of the $52 million he raised last month. Of those, 355 contributed at least $2,000, for a total of $1 million.
The final Obama number was $54 million, which means Clinton donors contributed a whopping 3.33% of his total take. Of course, the Obama-Clinton contest just concluded in June, so perhaps more Clinton supporters will — to use Obama’s phrase — “get over it.”
(h/t Memeorandum.)
8 out of 311? That’s 2.6%. Not good.
That’s alright; but I’ll be damned if I’ll donate a cent to help with Hillary’s ridiculous debt. Let her write it off as a bad learning experience.
