The biggest contributor, by far, is hedge fund founder Kenneth Griffin. He has given Alaskans for L.I.S.A. $1.5 million.
A mailer from Alaskans for L.I.S.A., plus a sticker that was available to attendees at a recent campaign event for candidate Kelly Tshibaka.
An independent group working to re-elect Sen. Lisa Murkowski raised $2.4 million in the past three months — four times as much as rival Republican Kelly Tshibaka, the target of the group’s attack ads. With substantial help from a billionaire investment fund founder, Alaskans for L.I.S.A. out-raised Murkowski’s own quarterly campaign total of $1.7 million.
The pro-Murkowski political action committee is separate from Murkowski’s campaign. It has to be, according to federal campaign law. As an independent superPAC, Alaskans for L.I.S.A. can collect contributions in unlimited amounts. “He is of the old school, the Chamber of Commerce, business and manufacturers’ Republican Party, not the evangelical right,” said Don Wiener, and investigator who has analyzed Griffin’s campaign contributions for the Wisconsin-based Center for Media and Democracy. “And Murkowski completely fits the bill.”
