Valin Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Washington Post/The Fix:Chris Cillizza 10/12/10Former Nevada state Assemblywoman Sharron Angle ® raised an eye-popping $14 million between July 1 and Sept. 30 for her challenge to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D), a stunning number that far eclipses the cash-collection totals of other prominent candidates seeking Senate seats next month."Sharron Angle produced one of the most successful single quarters of fundraising in the nation's history for a U.S. Senate campaign," said Angle communications director Jarrod Agen. "This is a testament to the hatred of Harry Reid, the nation's disapproval of President Obama, and the unprecedented grassroots support for Sharron Angle."Ninety four percent of the money raised in the third quarter by Angle came in the form of donation of $100 or less. Ninety six percent of the contributions were $200 or less.(Snip)More here Power Line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stella Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 I have gotten a snail mail request for money for Angle every single week for a couple of months now. I got one today, too, and shredded it already. She doesn't need my money but others do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
