What happens to a candidate’s campaign contributions if that candidate loses in the primary?
Posted on December 28th, 2009 by admin
If that candidate has money left over, does it simply go to his or her party’s general election fund? If so, what happens if that candidate doesn’t have a party?
I don’t think all candidates receive matching funds. I think McCain and Edwards are the only ones left who did.
What if there is money left? For hypothetical, say a candidate has a heart attack and passes away. What happens to his $10 mil?
After the primary, it goes into a candidate’s campaign fund. This fund is kept separate from their personal money and can only be spent on things related to the person’s political career. When they retire, the account becomes their own personal money.

Can the right font make the difference in a media-driven election? Barack Obama’s campaign is increasingly using the font Gotham for their “Change We Can Believe In” banners and other material. In this outtake from Gary Hustwit’s 2007 documentary “Helvetica”, type designers Jonathan Hoefler and Tobias Frere-Jones discuss the creation of Gotham. The font was originally commissioned for GQ Magazine, and the list of qualities they were looking for then sounds surprisingly Obama-esque now. http://www.helveticafilm.com/blog
