More on Obey's Out-of-State Money
According to this open secrets report, Wisconsin federal candidates got $2.2 million in itemized contributions from Wisconsin. Washington, DC and Virginia totaled $190,000 (so on the whole Wisconsin candidates got about 11 times more money from Wisconsin than from the DC area Obey calls home).
According to this open secrets report, Obey got over $70,000 from the DC metro area, more than 1/3rd of the total received by all the federal candidates from Wisconsin (that includes both Senators, and all incumbents and challengers in the 8 Congressional Districts).
According to this open secrets report, Dave Obey did not crack the top 10 for Wisconsin federal candidates in contributions received from people from Wisconsin. He did come in 1st for money received from contributors outside of Wisconsin with nearly $221,000. Nearly as much as 2nd and 3rd place COMBINED. And MORE than the TOP 4 Republicans combined.
If you add the $221,000 to the $454,000 he received from DC-based special interest political action committees, Obey received a whopping 79% from sources outside of Wisconsin.
