Pacificans Have Contributed $24,330 in 2012 Campaign Cycle

The Huffington Post has a cool feature up right now: a list of people who have contributed money to candidates and political action committees in the 2012 election cycle.

You can see how much the Pacifica resident contributed, who they gave it to, where they live in Pacifica, the contributor's profession and even what percentage of the total contributions went to Democrats or Republicans.

Curious as to which way Pacifica leans right now? Well, so far in the 2012 cycle, 62 percent of contributions made to candidates went to Democrats.

One major contributor is Republican, however. Paul Sisoian, a CBS Radio personality, gave $1,000 to Presidential hopeful Ron Paul and another $1,000 to LibertyPAC, Paul's political action committee that supports his campaign.

On the other side of the aisle, we've got Bruce Gottlieb, owner of Ornamento in Pacifica, who donated $500 to Sheldon Whitehouse, a Rhode Island Democrat running for Senate, and Donald Newton, bookstore manager at the City College of San Francisco, who contributed $500 to Congresswoman Jackie Speier's re-election campaign.
