Romney recaudó más que Palin y Pawlenty en noviembre

Mitt Romney ha vuelto a recaudar la mayor cantidad de dinero en el último mes a través de sus diferentes comités de acción política. Casi la mitad lo ha recaudado con los comités de acción política estatales que tiene montados en Iowa, New Hampshire, Michigan, y en especial Alabama, donde las leyes electorales permiten que los mismos donantes que ya hayan donado a su comité federal puedan donar por segunda vez.

Romney's federal political action committee and his series of state PACs, which are subject to different campaign finance laws, hauled in a combined total of more than $558,000 from Oct. 14 to Nov. 22, his spokesman told Hotline On Call. That breaks down to roughly $285,000 in federal dollars that will be reported to the FEC on Thursday and $273,000 in state-level fundraising.

Romney has always been a strong fundraiser but has remained under the radar during that time period compared Palin with her TV show and daughter's run on "Dancing With The Stars." (...)
