'Restore Our Future' SuperPAC top donor list

Restore Our Future is a SuperPAC created to support Mitt Romney by Romney's aides. Nearly half of the $60 million raised by July, 2012 come from Wall Steet donors.

Q: How can these people donate so much money to the Presidential Elections?

A: SuperPAC's are organizations - 'Political Action Committees', that usually spend most of their money on 'attack ads' - negative advertising against a candidate they want to see lose. Super PAC's can recieve and spend any amount of money, as long as they don't donate it to candidates, a campaign, or communicate with the candidates.
