[CWATCHDOGCFR] Two New Reports Available

 

We released two new reports today. You can see them at

http://www.WhiteHouseForSale.org

 

The Republican National Committee (RNC) has released its list of Super

Rangers, bundlers who have collected at least $300,000 for the GOP. All

but a handful of these rainmakers already ranked among President Bush's

largest financial backers. Forty-five of the Super-Rangers previously

had been crowned " Rangers " meaning they each have raised at least

$500,000 this cycle. Nine more had achieved " Pioneer " status by

collecting at least $100,000 for Bush or $400,000 for this election

cycle. $12.6 million was bundled for the RNC by the Finance, Insurance

and Real Estate sectors alone. This represents over 44% of the total

bundled. We have all of the information on them, including which states

they come from and what industries they represent.

 

We have also updated our searchable database of John Kerry's bundlers.

Kerry's 164 " vice chairs " (who have raised at least $100,000) and 171

" co-chairs " (who have collected at least $50,000) have accounted for at

least $25 million - and likely much more - of Kerry's total fundraising.

Again, we have the information on states and industries available for

you.
