ONTD Original: How Much Have Celebrities Donated To Political Campaigns?

Right on the heels of Election Day, I decided to finally finish this post I started a month or two ago but have been procrastinating on -__-" I'm not sure if there's a way to see if these celebs have made donations through other means, but I've sourced this post from the FEC's individual contributions data and cross-checked against OpenSecrets.

I'm not as rich as these celebrities (...obviously), but over the past year I'd estimate I've donated about $400 to various candidates and political organizations.

I textbanked for my candidate in the primary, and now in the general I wrote postcards to voters all over and have been textbanking for Texas Dems.

That's awesome, big kudos! 🙌

I've been donating/writing letters/text banking too, and working the polls for the first time tomorrow!

Have fun working the polls!

I've done that in the past, and genuinely found it fun.

That's good to hear! I'm kind of nervous it'll be crazy hectic and I'll mess something up, but we've also had a huge turnout for early voting week, so I'm hoping it's a little quieter tomorrow.

Casey donated to Trump? I hate him and he’s a scumbag but somehow I’m surprised. I guess I missed that post.

Casey used to have a production company with lifelong republican JPM, according to Casey, JPM donated to Trump through their company without him knowing about it.

Idk who’s telling the truth here but it’s no secret who JPM gives his money to and Casey is trash regardless but yeah idk if he knowingly gave trump money
