    That’s roughly 783 dollars per person, and since people usually donate small sums, 10 bucks here 50 bucks there, a handful of people donated ashit ton of money to her campaign.

    This seems great and all, but the fact that you need this much money to run a campaign at all is a huge problem.

    Edit: I forgot a zero, it’s actually like 78 dollars a person. Still ridiculous that you need so much money to run a campaign.

      I think you forgot a zero there or added an extra one to the dollar amount. 47 million / 600 thousand = $78.3333 per person

      Average is much more reasonable

          Money is free speech. It takes a lot of free speech to beat these cult members.
