Am not sure exactly what this information is trying to be shown by the data.
As I add the numbers, the following information regarding contributions to Presidential campaigns is shown:
1. Sen. Obama + the DNC Services Corp = approx $ 352.5 mil
2. Sen. McCain + RNC = approx $516.5 mil
3. The other Democratic candidate = approx $ 167.0 mil
4. The other Republican candidates = approx $ 410.0 mil
A. Total Democratic contributions = approx $ 519.5 mil
B. Total Republican contributions = approx $ 926.5 mil
How do you interpret this?
