The nightly compilation will come but I couldn’t help noting that the SEIU just spent $750 K in NH and $400 K in OR to help Shaheen and Merkley (or oppose their opponents). That’s a substantial chunk of change. The Union is by far and away the largest source of Independent Expenditure in Presidential politics spending an incredible $22 million plus on Obama. That’s right $22 million. SEIU affiliate, Local 1199 is listed as spending $3.8 million. The UAW at $3.9 million ranks second for Obama.
And yes, Grigsby was at it big time again spending against Don Cazayoux. Wouldn’t you love to know the back story of that one.
One other item of interest. The Painters Union spent $37,850 on Obama/Biden T shirts. Wonder if it is for a rally? What they should have gotten was painter’s caps.
