The Source is BLOOMBERG News:

This is a series of maps showing money raising for the first half of the year.


Super-PAC contributions:

This map shows only the contributions to super-PACs and other independent groups supporting a presidential candidate. These groups can accept donations of unlimited size from individuals, unions and corporations. (Campaigns can’t accept corporate or union money and are limited to $2,700 per individual per race.) Notice that even in Democratic enclaves like New York and San Francisco, the big money is flowing mostly to GOP candidates.

Million Dollar Donors:

Jeb is by far and away the biggest recipient and GOP money is spread all around the country.

HRC mostly skewing from the coasts, no contribution more than $1M. So, all the corporate $$ coming in from NY and Silicon Valley doesn't seem to be heading to Dems...but it's going to the GOP.


Sanders, $15M, with half from small donors.

Take a look at all the maps to get the full picture...
