“If campaign-finance reports are any indication, the fights for the 2016 Republican and Democratic presidential nominations could extend far beyond Iowa’s first votes Monday night,” the Wall Street Journal reports.
“As the first nominating contest in an unpredictable race looms, candidates increasingly will be drawing on their bank accounts and counting on super PACs to keep them on television and on the campaign trail. Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and Florida Sen. Marco Rubio have the most cash to finance a potentially protracted battle for the Republican nomination against their front-running rival, New York businessman Donald Trump.”
“In the Democratic race, both of the leading candidates previously announced flush campaign accounts: Hillary Clinton with $38 million as of the end of the year and Sen. Bernie Sanders with $28 million.”
