Whitman beats out all other governors

| | Comments (2) |

In the race to spend personal money on gubernatorial campaigns, Meg Whitman is beating every other person who ran for governor in the country in 2007 and 2008. Combined. By far.


California Watch has an interesting look at the historic extent of Whitman's spending, based on a study by the National Institute on Money in State Politics. She announced this week she would give her campaign another $20 million, bringing her self donations to $59 million.
