When it comes to campaign cash, you can always count on the Wichita Country Club — or at least those who live near it. As they have in past elections, residents in the 67206 zip code are pouring money into presidential campaigns at a rate rivaled only by the Shawnee Mission area and Olathe. But, as of late October when the latest finance reports came out, most of that money has been spent in vain on Sen. Sam Brownback, who withdrew from the race.

Of those remaining in the race, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani is getting the biggest boost from Kansans, according to Opensecrets.org, a site operated by The Center for Responsive Politics, a non-profit and non-partisan group. Here’s a look at the rest, as provided by Opensecrets.org:

1. Sam Brownback -$382,477
2. Rudolph W. Giuliani -$100,500
3. Barack Obama -$95,004
4. Mitt Romney -$83,100
5. Hillary Clinton - $82,895
6. John McCain - $82,490
7. John Edwards - $42,950
8. Fred Thompson - $40,501
9. Ron Paul - $40,255
10. Bill Richardson - $24,350
11. Joseph R. Biden Jr. - $22,700
12. Christopher J. Dod - $11,200
13. Tom Tancredo - $4,760
14. Mike Huckabee - $4,235
15. Ralph Nader - $1,100
16. Duncan Hunter - $1,000
17. Dennis J. Kucinich - $200
18. Alan L. Keyes - $200
19. Susan Gail Ducey - $172

The figures above reflect fund-raising through Oct. 29, 2007. Candidates file their year-end reports Jan. 31. As it stands today, Kansans’ political donations are split roughly 70 percent to Republicans and 30 percent Democrats.
