The Money Drug

Hillary Clinton continues to be the top fundraiser through the first three quarters of this year.

 

Presidential hopefuls through the first three quarters this year have raised an astounding $420 million, and the Center for Responsive Politics projects that figure could climb to $1 billion before the two major parties have their nominees. Democratic Senator Hillary Clinton of New York continues to lead the pack among all candidates with $90.9 million raised through Oct. 15. She’s followed by her Democratic rival Senator Barack Obama of Illinois ($80.3 million) and former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romeny ($62.8 million), who is seeking the Republican nomination. The charts below show how the candidates are faring in their fundraising efforts among the pharmaceutical/health products industry and among health professionals.
