Here’s the Donation Amounts to the 2020 Democratic Party Given By A Variety of Musicians

It’s always interesting to find out which musicians and celebrities alike are supporting presidential candidates. But now we get a glimpse of some musicians making monetary donations in support of their favorite candidate. Musicians and many others are currently showing support for Democratic presidential candidates running in 2020. The presidential candidates have filed fundraising reports for the first three months of the 2020 campaign.

Per an article on Stereogum, Donors list their occupation and address along with their contribution. So there’s a possibility, another self-employed actress named Amanda Moore exists from Longwood, Florida, or another guitarist named Jon Bongiovi in Jersey. The list of musicians and their donation amounts are listed below, based on committee receipts on the Federal Election Commission website. Important to note, FEC rules bar individual contributors from giving more than $2,800 to a candidate per primary or general election campaign. This list is ordered by quarterly fundraising totals.
