Pasadena council presidential donations

| |

This morning, Frank Girardot reminded me via his blog to check in on Todd Ruiz's new blog, Pasadena: Center of the Universe.

Since I really like random information on campaign donations, I particularly enjoyed two of his posts, one showing that Pasadena has donated $714,000 compared to $295,000 to McCain (big surprise- though from the number of McCain-Palin signs out there around town, if you didn't live here, you might not realize how Democratic it skews).

The next highlight where Pasadena council members have sent political contributions:

Bill (& Claire) Bogaard, Democrat, Mayor
Barack Obama $3,000
MoveOn.Org $250
Adam Schiff $1,500

Jacque Robinson, Democrat, District 1
Barack Obama $2,300

Margaret McAustin, Republicrat, District 2 (Margaret's been described as a "Huckabee Democrat")
Barack Obama $250

Chris Holden, Democrat, District 3
Barack Obama $500

Steve Haderlein, Republican, District 4
No records found

Victor Gordo, Democrat, District 5
Barack Obama $500
Daniel Seals, 10th District, D-Ill. $500 (??)

Steve Madison, Democrat, District 6
Adam Schiff $2,500
Pasadena Foothills Democratic Club $250
Barack Obama $33,100

Sid Tyler, Republican, District 7
No Records Found

Check out the post for some more local politicians and celebrity donations, including Bradley "Josh Lyman" Whitford.
