Fundraising triggers fresh questions over DeSantis campaign
Washington/New York | More than two-thirds of Ron DeSantis’s donations have come from individuals who have maxed out their contributions and cannot donate again to his primary campaign, raising questions about the sustainability of the Florida governor’s challenge to Donald Trump.
While Mr DeSantis brought in a sizeable $US20.1 million ($29.4 million) in the second quarter, according to the latest campaign finance disclosures, just 15 per cent of his donations came from small donors. More than two-thirds came from deep-pocketed contributors who have reached the limit of how much they can give.
