Newtown's Top Republican Presidential Campaign Contributors

Super Tuesday is just around the corner. As the party nomination season approaches the finish line, 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.

Neurosurgeon Ben Carson has raised $748,148 in individual donations in the state, according to publicly available contribution data from the Federal Election Commission, leading the state in donations despite polling in last place among remaining candidates nationally.

Here’s how much the other Republican candidates have taken in from Pennsylvanians:

• Florida Sen. Marco Rubio — $738,627
• Texas Sen. Ted Cruz — $660,260
• Ohio Gov. John Kasich — $240,649
• Donald Trump — $49,191

Individuals are limited to direct donations of $2,700 per candidate in an election cycle, according to FEC regulations.

Here are the top local donations by candidate. (Multiple top donations by the same person are listed with date):
