District 300 Tax Hike Committee Actually Had Small Donors - 3% of Total Money
Prior to Wednesday’s filing of its campaign disclosure report, the pubic had no idea whether anyone was making small contributions.
Surprise.
They were.
Of the $158,242.94 contributed in cash and things like office rent, $4,746.77 came from people and businesses who gave less than $150. As few as 32 such contributions were made, if most gave $150. Probably, there were many more.
So, 3% of the tax hike donation was from small contributors.
Most, of course, were from developers, vendors, developers, developers and vendors, developers, developers, developers, and developers.
