Wealthy investors, PACs and big GOP donors fill Sinema's campaign

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Arizona Sen. Kyrsten Sinema's campaign raised over $2.1 million in the first quarter of this year, with over half of that coming from donors who gave at least $3,300 -- the maximum per-election individual donation to a Senate campaign.

More than 30% of the Democrat-turned-independent's haul this quarter came from employees of just five major companies, including hedge funds, investment groups and private equity firms.

She received $287,000 from employees of Blackstone, the major investment firm, and its affiliates, as well as almost $196,000 from employees of the Carlyle Group and its affiliates, according to a NBC News analysis of her campaign finance filing. Sinema also received over $51,000 from employees of Elliott Advisors and their affiliates, over $71,000 from employees of Ryan LLC, and over $53,000 from employees of the firm Kohlberg Kravis Roberts and its subsidiaries.

Sinema has been criticized in the past for her ties to Wall Street and the wealthy. Much of this critique has come from Rep. Ruben Gallego, D-Ariz., who announced last year that he would run for the Democratic nomination to her Senate seat.
