Conservative Donors Slow to Back Romney

An Associated Press review of campaign finance data found that “only a few hundred donors who contributed to candidates like Newt Gingrich or Rick Santorum have changed course and gave to Romney’s campaign or the Republican Party in April. That’s as GOP stalwarts and some former rivals have called on supporters to rally around Romney’s White House run.”

“Out of more than 50,000 donors who gave to
other GOP candidates like Gingrich, Santorum and Texas Gov. Rick Perry
since the start of the nomination race, fewer than 600 appeared to write
checks to Romney in April.”
