Inaugural Committee updates bundler list


Alexander Cohen - Posted on 18 December 2008

Yesterday, the Presidential Inaugural Committee upped the ante on its disclosure level by revising its list of inauguration bundlers. (More after the jump.)

In addition to almost doubling the list of revealed bundlers, for the first time it is listing their occupations, cities and states. By contrast, Obama's campaign never included occupations as part of its bundler disclosure, leaving it virtually impossible to determine who some people were.

There are now 110 bundlers on the list, who have raised amost $11.9 million for the inauguration. Ten of the bundlers listed have raised the maximum permitted by the committee, $300,000. Perhaps not surprisingly, more than half of the money raised ($6.6 million) came through bundlers in just four places, New York, California, D.C. and Illinois.
