The story is a bit speculative in my opinion.
Cruz has gotten a steady flow of cash from small donors like me up to and including March 15th.
I have given more in the hundreds to Cruz than I have ever given to any candidate before.
I know the limit and I’m not going to get close to it anyway since I am a ‘small donor’.
The legal limit allowed for a presidential candidate in a primary cycle is $2,700, not $2,400 as cited in this article.
Cruz is said to have a donor list of 320,000 people to tap into. That’s a big reason he survived the race up to this point against Trump’s resources.
Now the Establishment folks will chip in their money and resources which raises questions and doubts.
The latest Cruz fundraising emails point to the notion of us matching funds from donors and ‘unifying’ the Republican Party.
“The story is a bit speculative in my opinion.”
Nothing speculative about it at all.
Take a look at Cruz’s Feb 2016 FEC report summary:
http://www.fec.gov/fecviewer/CandidateCommitteeDetail.do?candidateCommitteeId=P60006111&tabIndex=3
$7,600,000 in and $12,700,000 out.
How can the donor funds “match” unless they are matching outside Cruz’ campaign committee. Isn’t that illegal on its face as an illegal cooperation between his campaign committee and a Super Pac?
