Following the Money: Who's Shelling Out for the Presidential Candidates, and for Women

RootStrikers.org has created a great infographic highlighting where money goes and comes from in the presidential election. This year, Obama has received over $35 million from Super PACs, or about 7.6 percent of the money he's raised (92.4 percent has come from direct contributions), while Romney has received much more from Super PACs -- almost $96 million, or 25.5 percent of his money raised (74.5 percent has come from direct contributions).

But what about PAC funding for women candidates? Women running for office tend to receive much less money from Super PACs than their male counterparts, as demonstrated in an infographic from She Should Run. (Below is a selection from the graphic; find the whole thing here.)
