I don't know if this is true ( I doubt it it ), but who cares if it is... Pres. Obama took more money from oil companies back in 2008/20012 so it won't matter.

And then he wrote subsidies for them into the budget... And I'm surs there's a lot more benefits for them that I am yet to uncover

Interesting. Idk Hillary was funded by the health insurance industry. Explains so much. Explains why instead of pushing for Medicare for all, she wants to "expand on Obama care".

I am NOT here for the polls getting tighter for Hill in New York. We need Hillary to win and win BIG!!! When do we get new polls? I don't get how the race in NY can tighten when no one can switch parties or register to vote anymore??

I believe there was still a pretty big portion of undecided voters left in one of the latest polls.

Both Hillary and Bernie have taken money from folks who work for the fossil fuel industry...Hillary about 300K and Bernie about 50K so no one should be throwing stones

Thank you. I am sick and tired of the Sanders campaign lying too about her contributions from the fossil fuel industry. Source after source proving that greenpeace activist has no idea what she was talking about.

When the figures come in she'll win by more than 12 points. Actually I'd even say ignore polls until you're about one week out

An activist from Greenpeace approached Clinton to ask if the candidate would "reject fossil-fuel money in the future" in her campaign. Clinton, incensed, replied that her contributions came from employees of oil companies -- not the companies themselves -- and that she was "so sick of the Sanders campaign lying about me."

But note: Both Democrats have received money from "the oil and gas industry." The total for Clinton's campaign is about $308,000; for Sanders's, it's about $54,000. As Clinton noted in the moment, the Center for Responsive Politics mostly aggregates contributions by employer. If a guy who runs the commissary at Chevron in California gives $27 to Bernie Sanders, that's counted as "oil and gas industry" money.

As a percentage of all the money campaigns have raised, both Clinton and Sanders have only raised a fraction of their totals from that industry.

Double standards continue in this political cycle. It's okay for Bernie to receive small or medium-sized contributions from employees or retirees, but that courtesy doesn't apply to Hillary cause she received more than he did? MESS.

The Bernie fumes all over the internet

Seriously, there was no need for any of this. The problem is Bernie is cheating his followers making them think he has a realistic shot. He doesn't and he knows that. So either he is just interested in money or he lowkey wants Trump as a president if his strategy is to hurt Hillary as hard as he can. It's not like that has worked for him at all up to this point.

I think he does... It would cause a "revolution" that he's been talking about all this time. I wouldn't actually put credibility to this thought if it wasn't for him being so harsh and rigid on the idea of supporting Hillary unless she becomes him entirely.

Interesting

Although to be fair...

considering the lobbyists that back Clinton.

According to the Center for Responsive Politics, no candidate has received more money from lobbyists -- or, again, those who work for lobbyists -- than Clinton, to the tune of some $860,000.

But she's getting money from lobbyists who represent the fossil fuel industry no?

The Hillary Hens clearly see only what they want to see. This being another example.

Last are contributions from fossil fuel interests to Super PACs supporting Hillary Clinton. Greenpeace has found $3,250,000 in donations from large donors connected to the fossil fuel industry to Priorities Action USA, a Super PAC supporting Secretary Clinton’s campaign.

All told, the campaign to elect Hillary Clinton for president in 2016 has received more than $4.5 million from lobbyists, bundlers, and large donors connected the fossil fuel industry.

Number of oil, gas and coal industry lobbyists that have made direct contributions to Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign: 57

57 registered oil, coal and gas lobbyists have personally given $126,200 to the Hillary campaign
Of those 57, 11 are bundlers.
11 lobbyists have bundled $1,140,930 in contributions to the Hillary campaign
43 lobbyists have contributed the maximum allowed ($2700).
This includes:

Lobbyists who have reported lobbying for the oil and gas industry – both in-house company lobbyists and hired lobbyists from “K-Street firms.”

This does not include:

Industry executives
Other employees of the oil and gas industry
Board members
Corporate PAC contributions
Contributions by major investors
Donations to Super PACS or non-profit groups
Contributions made by trade associations to Super PACs
Hillary takes more from lobbyists in general than any other candidate
