Over at TaxProf Blog, the indefatigable Paul Caron reports that 95% of the amount in law prof political contributions this year have been to Obama while 5% of the gross has gone to McCain. All told, 635 law professors made contributions totalling $623,472.
This reminds me: if you're a Dem or simply interested in an attending an Obama fundraiser co-hosted by my friend Jeannie Suk (HLS), please get in touch with her or note the following: she is helping organize an evening reception with Larry Tribe as the guest of honor on Tuesday September 23, 2008 at 630pm in Cambridge. For more information or to RSVP please contact Kathy Gasperine at: gasperinek@dnc.org or (617) 381-4008. The money will go to the "Obama Victory Fund."
And if there are any McCainiacs with something similar to share, ie, a Republican law prof fundfest, please let me know.
