High-tech companies fund Hillary Clinton
It is no secret that in America big politics is financed quite openly. During the race, presidential candidates collect donations, not only from citizens, but also from legal entities. Then these firms can count on favor from the newly elected senators, congressmen and presidents.
It is very interesting to see which candidate is supported by Google, Microsoft, Apple and other IT companies, especially since this is open information.
The number of donations in favor of each candidate is published quarterly in special financial bulletins . The chart above shows the data for the I quarter. 2007
')
The results are very interesting, although quite predictable. As usual, most high-tech companies favor Democrats. Just in case, of course, their rivals are also funded, but in more modest amounts. Stand out here are only Apple and Adobe, which finance the Republicans. True, we are talking about very modest amounts (in the next quarter, everything can change). These modest amounts cannot even come close to the amount of capital investment of the political financing monster - Google.
Tactics at all different. For example, Google allocates large sums to two candidates: Hillary Clinton ($ 24 thousand) and Barack Obama ($ 26 thousand), while Microsoft fairly evenly distributes funding among ten candidates, not forgetting, of course, Hillary. She is a clear leader in the fight for the love of high-tech corporations. In general, if voting took place in cash, then Hillary Clinton would have become president right now.
