Wayland's Top Republican Presidential Campaign Contributors

WAYLAND, MA - Massachusetts voters will take to the polls on Mar. 1 to cast their ballots for the presidential nomination in each party, and if campaign contributions are any indication of appeal, it could be a close race on the Republican side.

Florida Sen. Marco Rubio has raised $634,775 in individual donations in the state, according to publicly available contribution data from the Federal Election Commission, despite polling in third place among remaining candidates nationally.

Here’s how much the other Republican candidates have taken in from Massachusetts natives:

• Texas Sen. Ted Cruz — $230,654
• Dr. Ben Carson— $241,501
• Ohio Gov. John Kasich — $174,766
• Donald Trump — $55,790

National contribution numbers tell a different story, with Carson leading the way, followed by Cruz, Rubio, Trump and Kasich.

Those numbers, though, are a bit misleading.

While the campaigns have raised plenty of money through individual contributions, Super PACs have poured tons of money to support campaigns as well.

Outside groups have raised $46,726,605 for Cruz, $13,807,549 for Carson, $34,313,903 for Rubio, $6,729,311 for Kasich and $1,894,509 for Trump, according to OpenSecrets.
