Presidential candidates are trying to prove their distance from big donors while keeping close enough to finance their campaigns
Democratic presidential candidates have a money problem: They need to raise a ton of it while simultaneously proving their distance from big donors — and most candidates can’t do both at once.
To address the conundrum, most candidates are imposing limits on how their own campaigns raise funds — refusing money from corporate PACs, for instance, and in some cases saying they don’t want super PAC support — to prove their anti-corruption bona fides, while also seeking out support from big donors behind the scenes.
Two candidates, Sanders and fellow Sen. Elizabeth Warren, are planning to lean heavily on online donors during the primary, while others are cultivating a mix of digital and big-ticket contributors.
