SEC Primary States: GOP Fundraising Totals

Just scanning an article on the state-by-state polls for the GOP's SEC Primaries, and was surprised at the disparity in money that each candidate had raised in each state.

If you've struggled to fully gauge how badly - desperately, even - the GOP elites hate Trump, and hope to stop him, this should help.

Just follow the money.

What is Carson doing with all his money?

 

Alabama
Carson - $526k
Cruz - $373k
Rubio - $306k
Kasich - $28k
Trump - $26k

 

In fairness, Trump isn't trying to raise money.

 

Alaska
Carson - $107k
Cruz - $15k
Rubio - $15k
Trump - $11k
Kasich - $3k

 

Based on results, wasting it. I wondered the same, and wonder how he raises so much with so little support.

 

Cruz raised $15M. Just in Texas.

 

Fair.

 

I can't honestly say that I have even heard very many Carson ads down here.

 

I do not recall seeing one in Tennessee. Maybe he is going to keep the money and head off to parts unknown.

 

Can't recall hearing the first ad on the radio.

 

Capitalizing his book tours

 

It's amazing how Carson faded when it came time to actually vote. I guess making shit up about the pyramids will doesn't help.
