About 55% of the nearly $26 million Cruz has raised this cycle from individuals comes from people who do not live in Texas, according to OpenSecrets, a nonpartisan group in Washington, D.C., that tracks money in politics. The analysis doesn’t include fundraising from political action committees or other fundraising committees.

    The analysis doesn’t include fundraising from political action committees or other fundraising committees.

    Then this is a pretty stupid analysis that pretends Citizens United and SpeechNow don’t exist. Those PACs are how corporations and foreign governments shovel money and buy elected officials.

    Not looking at PACs kind of undermines the whole analysis. (And I know they can’t because they’re PACs, which is their point.)
