1. Geography of a state plays a huge role in which area gives the most money. Chicago donated over $85,000,000 more than the second top donor in Illinois. Chicago is the densest city in Illinois, so candidates target these areas for more money.
2. In Nevada, the top two donors are casinos/gambling and health professionals. In New York, the top donor is from securities and investment. This shows how the candidates and campaigns target the most prominent economic players of the state, for they have the most money to give.
3. Presidential campaigns gain the most money. The numbers for each state are highest in regards to amount of money donated to presidential candidates, understandably because the presidential elections are the most prominent in America.
