Top Contributors To Arnold By Industry

Arnold Schwarzenegger announced his candidacy for governor with a pledge that "I don't need to take any money from anybody" because "I have plenty of money myself." Arnold's about-face on his promise to accept no campaign contributions brought millions of dollars into his campaign chest. Below is a list of the "Top 100" donors to the various campaign committees that the Governor controls*. The data was compiled from public filings with the Secretary of State. Graph above last updated 7/6/07. Top 100 donors list below last updated 8/14/08.
