Show Me the Money


As millions of dollars pour into the landmark California Campaign over Proposition 8 – the proposed amendment that would restore traditional marriage in the Golden State – a review of those donations is painting drastically different portraits of each side of the debate.
An online review of contributions for Protect Marriage’s Yes on 8 reveals that nearly half of the money is coming from gifts of $1,000 or less and 95 percent of individual donations are coming from within the state. Contributions to the No on 8 campaign show, however, that nearly two-thirds of the donations are for more than $1,000. In addition, more than a dozen gay and lesbian rights organizations have combined to pump in several million dollars to try to defeat the measure.

“It illustrates this is a classic battle between a vocal minority and a broad majority of Californians over traditional marriage,” said Andy Pugno, legal council for the Yes on 8 campaign.
