Per AJC.
Ossof raised about $8.3M, 95% of which is from outside the state. The top 3 sources of his donations:
1) California
2) New York
3) Massachusetts
Only about 1% of his financial backing is from within the 6th district.
Karen Handel raised about $460K, 90% of which came from within Georgia.
Commentators say this campaign could become the most expensive House seat race in history as even more $ is expected to pour into Ossof's campaign from outside the state.

I still don't understand why california business leaders are desperate for the dem to win here.

I read this morning that only 2% of Joe Manchin's donations were from West Virginia.
Two fricking percent

What if we had a law that prevented donations from outside your district?
I'm struggling to understand or find a negative consequence.

We must not allow outside actors to influence our sacred election process.

And the odd thing is that Ossof is making speeches about defeating 'the special interests'.

That's what I call grassroots

It's the new Democratic strategy. Vice News did a big story about it. Identify races which are possible to flip, and volunteers from around the country set up centers to focus their efforts. It's a grass roots effort and it's a good strategy. Nothing wrong with it, we're all Americans here.

Hmmm...95%...seems low...

So the Dumbocrats are going to spend 20-30 million and lose.
Even if somehow they win, ever hear of a pyrrhic victory?

It's like someone from outside of the election is trying to manipulate the results.......

Ossoff spent 6M, and had more than that spent on ads attacking him directly by the RNC, NRCC, and Republican PACs.
None of those are 'from' GA, either. Suck it up, snowflakes.

When he talks, it feels like he's trying not smirk or laugh after he says something. The guy's an amateur... You can see right through his bullshite.
