Weston's Top Democratic Presidential Campaign Contributors

WESTON, 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 state, according to publicly available contribution data from the Federal Election Commission.

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

That’s somewhat in line with nationwide numbers that show Clinton with $126.4 million in individual contributions compared to $95.4 million for Sanders.

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 19 big-spenders in Weston, who contributed $2,700, the maximum an individual can donate to a campaign allowed under federal law.

They are:

• David D’Alessandro
• Bill Weinstein
• Thomas W. Seeman
• Karen Linde Packman
• Susan Littlefield
• Jennifer Seeman
• Meredith McPherron
• Kimberly Jacobs
• Lisa Sue Lebovitz
• Joyce Linde
• Melissa Janfaza
• Val Mosley
• Susan Solomont
• Jonathan Gertler
• Alan Solomont
• Charles Gervais
• Sarah Williamson
• Alicia Abad
• Sheila Marcelo

Two people in Weston have made individual contributions of $1,000 or more to Sanders:

• Danya Reda - $2,700
• Craig Meyer - $1,000

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.

The last time Massachusetts voted in a Democratic presidential primary, the state’s citizens chose Hillary Rodham Clinton over Obama, 56 percent to 41 percent.

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