Followthemoney.org to track contributions from nursing homes to state
politicians:
On
the right side of the screen, under the heading start Your Search
Here select the state and election year you are interested in. (i.e.
Arkansas 2004)
In the same area, directly above Submit Search it will say special
Interests (optional) Click and scroll down to select hospitals and
Nursing Homes ·
Submit Search
· On the next screen, you will find a chart showing Contributor Name,
Employer, Occupation, State, Zip Code, Business, Records, and Amount.
· We are only interested with the contributors who have nursing homes
in the Business column.
· The State column tells you what state the contributor is from. For
example, in the Arkansas 2004 search, a fifth of the way down we come
to Norman J. Estes, who gave money to Arkansas state politicians but
is from Alabama.
· Click on a Contributor. (Arkansas Health Care Association)
· At the top of the page, you will find how much the individual
contributor gave to all candidates during this election cycle and in
this state, along with the breakdown of money given to Democrats,
Republicans, Third Parties, and Ballot Measures.
· Scrolling down, you will find the list of candidates, party
committees, and ballot committees that received money from the
contributor, the office where applicable and the amount of this
individual donation. It is important to note that a contributor may
have made multiple donations to a candidate in the same cycle (see
Charles Ormond or Bill Pritchard). These individual returns must be
summed to find the total contribution.
· Click on a candidate (i.e. Reginald Murdock)
· On this page, you will find the candidate party, his intended
office, and his total money raised for this election cycle.
· Scrolling down, you will find a list of top contributors. In the
case of Reginald Murdock, you see that the Arkansas Health Care
Association donated 1,000, or 13.79% of his fundraising. In cases
where the contributor was not a top contributor, the percent will not
appear on the screen, but using the Total Raised to Date line at the
top of the page, it can be deduced.
· Use the back arrow on your browser to return to the list of
candidates and continue your research into this contributor, or focus
again on the Start Your Search Here section and pick a different
search entirely.
