Three 2024 Republican Candidates Garner Maximum Wall Street Donations
Exciting news in the world of politics! It has been reported that three potential Republican candidates for the 2024 presidential race have received an impressive number of maximum campaign donations from influential leaders on Wall Street.
The candidates in question are none other than the brilliant entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, the esteemed Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL), and the former Arkansas Governor Nikki Haley. According to a thorough analysis conducted by NBC News and CBS News, these three individuals have each received a remarkable twelve or more maximum contributions from the finance industry’s top players.

Now, let’s dive into the numbers. The maximum amount that individuals are allowed to contribute is $3,300 before the primary or a whopping $6,600 for the entire election cycle. Governor DeSantis has managed to secure an impressive fifteen such donations, while both Ramaswamy and Haley have received a commendable twelve each.
It’s worth noting that during the 2020 election, then-candidate Joe Biden significantly outpaced Donald Trump in terms of Wall Street contributions, amassing over $74 million compared to Trump’s $18 million. It seems that a similar trend favoring candidates other than Trump is expected to emerge in the upcoming race.
Turning our attention back to the current contenders, Governor DeSantis has already raised an astounding $20 million since announcing his candidacy in late May. Trump’s campaign comes in a close second, reporting a respectable $17.7 million.
Meanwhile, Nikki Haley has managed to secure an impressive $7.3 million in donations, while Vivek Ramaswamy has inched ahead with an impressive $7.7 million.
However, it’s important to keep in mind that in order for candidates to secure a spot on the first Republican primary debate stage in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, they must gather at least 40,000 individual donors. The competition is fierce, and every contribution counts!
