A Look At Vilsack's Fundraising

Congressional Quarterly took a close look at Tom Vilsack's fundraising numbers for his Presidential Campaign. So far Vilsack has raised $1.1 million. 48% of the contributions came from Iowa.

Some interesting names that donated to his campaign are Warren Buffet, Michael Gartner, Jerry Crawford, Cedar Rapids Mayor Kay Halloran, State Rep. Polly Butka of Clinton, and James Atwood, the managing director of the Carlyle Group.

The article is pretty positive about Vilsack's fundraising efforts so far, but doesn't talk about how much he has already spent. Check out the article for more information.

Of course, no one ever mentions how good Vision Iowa was to Gartner. He worked hard on the grant process as chairman and was rewarded with a big chunk of money to fix up the area around Principle Park.
