Tennessee Democratic Party Largest Recipient of Hsu Money

Suitably Flip has crunched tons of campaign finance data and has the latest totals on all the money that flowed into the campaign coffers of dozens of Democratic candidates and party organizations in recent years from convicted felon fund-raiser Norman Hsu, and the data reveals an astonishing fact:

Norman Hsu gave more money to the Tennessee Democratic Party than to any other single Democratic entity, including the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee and the Democratic National Committee.

The data shows that Hsu and donors connected to Hsu gave a total of $51,000 to the campaigns of U.S. Rep. Harold Ford Jr., who lost his bid for the U.S. Senate last year. That's higher than the $14,700 previously reported.

In addition, Hsu gave $58,000 to the Tennessee Democratic Party from 2003 to 2007.

By comparison, Hsu gave only $35,000 to the Democratic National Committee and $43,700 to the DSCC.

In all, more than $2.438 million in money from or connected to Hsu has gone to 84 Democratic candidates and candidate PACs, 22 Democratic committees and state parties since 2003. Oh, and one Republican candidate got some Hsu money.
