Sad to see that Texas couldn't crack the top 22. But it looks like we probably donated exactly proportional to our donor base.

On really big flaw with your methodology here is that this is a bound set. California could never be more than +0 because they have the number one population, right. Texas and New York have the same problem with a maximum value of +1 and +2, respectively. Alaska on the other hand is almost guaranteed to be at the top. Just something to consider.

I agree, it's not a perfect system. Here is what it looks like ranked by difference of donor/donors - state/states:

The current total is $190,017.02
? Not sure what you mean, but the ticker is still there when I use the link in the first post. I made a donation this morning about 3 hours ago and it updated with my name. It appears to be still updating now.
The current total is $190,017.02

It's good to see NH, KY, and IA all high on the list: the first two contests + homebase.

Ron did well in WA; it's the anti-war left I suppose.
another small donation can win you a trip to colorado to see debate on 10/28
I see there is also a contest to win a trip to colorado to see Rand in the debate next week.
You can give as little as $5 to enter.

They didn't necessarily. The chart just shows the state's position relative to their population. Washington is +7. Washington is the 13th most populous state and they donated the 6th most money. This isn't the case but hypothetically speaking Washington could have donated $1 dollar more than 7th place and $30,000 less than 5th place. The chart in and of itself tells us nothing about how much they donated. Just how they ranked relative to their population size.

Nice. Glad to see they've started doing that. Would be really cool if they could do something like that during the Nov 5th Money Bomb.
