The Influence of Money in Politics

Money plays a big part in politics. With money candidates can campaign and go all over the country trying to get votes. If one cannot raise as much money as another candidate then that person would be at a severe disadvantage. Money will always play a big role with anyone running for office and we will see how money help everything play out.

Donating money now into the election even though Illinois primary has been chosen can be useful because they both still need to get more votes and there is still a lot of work left to be done so any money into the cause would drastically help either of them.

Influence

If you have already voted but you want to help out a candidate you can always donate. All the money you donate would go to advertising the candidate. If you don't want to donate to the candidate you can always donate to an organization that is fighting for what you believe is right. This way you help get their voices hear so there can be something done about the issue.

Money Influences in Campaigns.

Money can be used in an election very strategicly--for example, a person can donate the max sum for a campaign ($2,300/person), to help the candidate in funding.

Money goes a long way. Not just in this case, but a person can deny donation to a candidate in their party if they do not like them. Likewise, a wealthy person can donate the max amount for the campaign.

If I had voted already, but still could donate, I'd definitely donate money to Obama's campaign. However, I wouldn't donate DIRECTLY. Chances are when a pay-to-meet candidate fundraiser comes up, I would attend that, and donate by way of the meeting. Temporary organizations that candidates set up are for their benefit, candidates can use them to have people organize, so that they can be seen.
