With the hook of Linda McMahon’s Senate candidacy, Daniela Altimari of the Hartford Courant has an interesting backgrounder on super-rich, self-funded candidates in general. See “Do the Richest Candidates Hold an Edge Over Competition?”, http://www.courant.com/news/politics/hc-millionaire-self-funders-02-.artfeb16,0,3949602.story?page=1.
McMahon has a million bucks in her checking account. I hope her checks are free.
