So I remember last election Dr. Paul had more military donations than all candidates combined (both R's and D's)
So I ran through the numbers on the FEC site http://query.nictusa.com/pres/2011/Q2/
I based these numbers off the employer section. Anyone who described their employer as military.
Army, Navy ,Air Force, National Guard ,Costa Guard, Marine Corps and Dept of Defense.
An this is what i have come up with so far.
*Now these numbers are not 100% accurate, i may have missed one here or there. *
Cain $6223
Romney $5000
Bachmann $2550
Newt $1025
Pawlenty $250
Santorum $250
Johnson $0
Total $15398.00 *updated*
The Good Doctor comes in more than double all the other Republican candidates combined.
Paul $ $36739.79 *updated*
** Update** After going over Obama's numbers again it seems i missed quite a bit. There were some questionable donations but I added them in anyway.
Obama - $28833.99
Total Candidates (minus Paul) - $44231.99
Paul does not beat total donations of all other candidates combined however, he still comes in double the Republicans' combined and #1 out of all candidates.
Any help going through Romney's and Obama's donations would be much appreciated as there is a lot of information to be double checked.
