Who Donated the Most to Republican Presidential Campaigns in Princeton?

Who has donated to the Republican candidates?

New Jersey voters will take to the polls on Tuesday, June 7.

With Super Tuesday coming up in just a matter of days, two favorites have emerged on each side: Democrat Hillary Clinton and Republican Donald Trump.

Trump, a business mogul, has self-financed his campaign, although he does still receive noteworthy contributions.

In New Jersey, he has raised less money than the other candidates who remain in the race, although to be fair, the candidate who has raised the most has suspended his campaign. New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie has outraised every candidate in both parties in his home state, with a total of $3,631,255 in this election cycle.

Here’s how much the Republicans who remain in the race have taken in from Garden State voters:

  • Marco Rubio, $549,587
  • Ted Cruz, $491,758
  • Ben Carson, $366,694
  • John Kasich, $49,546
  • Donald Trump, $44,600

Rubio leads Republican candidates in fundraising in ZIP codes that begin with 085, which includes towns in Mercer County, with $53,408.
