Where Cash Flows

There's a page on the Capitol Eye website that tracks donations to the political campaigns of the Democratic superdelegate (check out the site HERE).

The page is very factual and doesn't play sides beyond noting that Barack Obama's campaign has given 3 times as much money to superdelegates as Hillary Clinton has.

Perhaps the most interesting set of statistics has to do with superdelegates from Indiana and North Carolina—the sites of next week's two important primaries. I've compiled the data below:

North Carolina superdelegates:

Rep. Heath Shuler —

Obama campaign contributes $10,000
Clinton campaign contributes $0.


Indiana superdelegates

Rep. Baron Hill —

Obama campaign contributes $12,500
Clinton campaign contributes $2,500

[NOTE: Baron Hill has backed Barack Obama...wouldn't you?]

Rep. Brad Ellsworth —

Obama campaign contributes $10,000
Clinton campaign contributes $0

Rep. Joe Donnelly —

Obama campaign contributes $7,500
Clinton campaign contributes $0

We will have to wait and see how Shuler, Ellsworth, and Donnelly's superdelegate votes go, but the facts speak for themselves for the moment.
