The FCBlog looks at Pasadena political spending

| |

Centinel and reader AA put together a nice Java display of where the money comes from in Pasadena politics.
It's the sort of thing the Internet was made to do.
I noticed that while most of the zip codes are California zips there appears to be contributions from out of state as in Colorado or Utah.. .that's sort of interesting...
Anyway, nice job dudes.
UPDATE: The city of Glendora, which won (ahem) the Darkness award last year, does have its compaign contributions online. Unfortunately, they're scanned copies of the print version and somewhat difficult to read. But they should get props for even trying.
