Wakefield's Top Democratic Presidential Campaign Contributors

WAKEFIELD, MA—Massachusetts voters will take to the polls on Super Tuesday, March 1, to cast their ballots for the presidential nomination in each party, and if campaign contributions are any indication of appeal, Hillary Clinton should be a big winner on the democratic side.

Clinton has received $4,042,909 so far in campaign donations from people in the Commonwealth, according to publicly available contribution data from the Federal Election Commission.

Her rival, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, has raised $1,414,239 in the Commonwealth.

Those numbers, though, are a bit misleading.

While Clinton’s campaign has raised big bucks from individuals, she’s also been helped by massive money pouring in through Priorities USA Action, a pro-Clinton Super PAC that has raised more than $50 million in support of the former Secretary of State, according to OpenSecrets.

Sanders has raised just $44,968 from outside groups, according to OpenSecrets.

Clinton has had two donations in Wakefield over $1,000.

They are:

• Richard Phelps-$2,700
• William Glasser-$1,000

Wakefield has four contributors who have donated $250 or more:

• Charles Spurr-6 $500 Donations
• David Bruce-$250
• Mary Coperski-$250
• Sylvia Morrison-$250

Following voting in three states, Clinton leads Sanders in pledged delegates, 52 to 51. But Clinton holds a commanding lead over the Vermont Sen. in the race for the nomination overall with the support of 445 superdelegates compared to just 18 superdelegates for Sanders.

Polls will be open from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. on election day.
