Plame out | |
2020-03-09 | |
[American Thinker] The Plame campaign has been a champion fundraiser, surpassing its nearest rival by hundreds of thousands of dollars. Over 87% of her contributors are from out of state. No other candidate comes close to such a disproportionate share of out-of-state financial support. Despite her campaign war chest, the Plame campaign has apparently not received a single group endorsement. By contrast, another candidate, Teresa Leger Fernandez, has received endorsements from at least four groups. The day of reckoning came on March 7, the day of the pre-primary convention. The convention delegates determine who shall appear on the Democrat ballot in New Mexico. To qualify, a candidate must receive at least 20% of the vote. Sadly for Ms. Plame, she received only 5.18% of the vote. Despite her substantial fundraising, her campaign apparently never really excited party insiders in New Mexico.

#5 do you get to keep campaign funds if you never were elected to office? Seems almost like a ticket for theft, there must be some standards regarding what a campaign must have and do for it to legal? |

#4 So she received-- what, a few hundred votes? How many $/vote does that make, ca. $1,000 per vote? Even Bloomberg got a better ROI. Why doesn't this little grifter just start a GoFundMe account? |

#3 #1 - those Roman Catholic Latins most likely. Being a carpetbagger in New Mexico has less of an appeal than in New York. |
