UC & UCLA Political Contributions Go Very Heavily to Democrats

Eighty-six percent of individual contributors to political candidates at UC have given to Democrats in the current election cycle. See http://www.opensecrets.org/news/2010/09/politically-active-professors-dont.html

The Huffington Post allows you to search for contributors by name or employer. When I entered UCLA as employer, 89% (as of today) of those identifying UCLA as employer gave to Democrats. See http://fundrace.huffingtonpost.com/ (As the info is updated, this figure could change. And, it’s a good idea to remember that when you donate to political campaigns, your personal information regarding the donations appears on the web.)
