“While Susan Collins’ campaign is backed by billionaire donors, our campaign is built on a movement funded by the people, with an average donation of $26,” said Graham Platner’s campaign manager.
A new analysis of campaign finance data shows that nearly 100 billionaires and their spouses have contributed to Republican Sen. Susan Collins’ reelection bid so far, funneling nearly $10 million to the incumbent’s campaign committee and PACs supporting her effort to fend off progressive challenger Graham Platner.
The Maine Monitor on Thursday published a list of billionaires who have donated to Collins and Platner, who has called his Republican opponent a “corrupt” protector and beneficiary of an oligarchic political system.
The outlet noted that Collins’ billionaire donation total “stands in stark contrast with the fundraising of her opponent… whose campaign has mostly attracted smaller amounts of funds but from many more people.”
Trump, an actual Russian asset and known pedophile with deep ties to a fascist tech oligarchs
Harris, an empty suit who took the nomination sans primary and immediately handed her campaign to the Cheney family
Jill Stein, a perennial fail candidate with no meaningful ties to anyone who mostly just campaigns on climate change and anti-war issues
I mean, if you want the Harm Reduction Candidate, it’s obviously Stein.
But if you’re heavily invested in partisan politics, you just vote straight ticket
