More Cash For The Guv

Comments Off

Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger's political campaign bank account keeps on growing... in most cases, from what could be called some familiar sources.

In the last 10 days alone, the governor's California Recovery Team account has taken in $475,000. If you're keeping score at home (and you are, aren't you?) that's more than $700,000 in May and more than $2.7 million since January 1.

Among the notable checks written: $250,000 from southern California investment fund manager William Powers... $25,000 each from Hollywood moguls Jeffrey Katzenberg and Steven Spielberg... $100,000 from Chevron... and two notable health care industry contributions-- $100,000 from the California Association of Hospitals and Health Systems, and $25,000 from Pacificare.
