The Washington Post reports:

The top individual donor so far this election cycle is Tom Steyer, who has given $20 million to Democrats. The total includes money given to “federal candidates, parties, political action committees, 527 organizations, super PACs,” according to an analysis from OpenSecrets.org.

Steyer is from San Francisco. Twenty-five percent of the top 100 donors live in California.

The second biggest campaign contributor is Michael Bloomberg, who has given $9.5 million, mostly to Democratic candidates, causes and organizations. He’s one of 22 top donors who hail from New York.

The third biggest spender is also a donor to Democrats. Fred Eychaner, founder of Newsweb Corp., lives in Chicago and has given $5.6 million to Democrats and related groups.

The Democrat party: the party of the super-rich looking for a special privilege.
