Strike Stays the Course in "No Tolerance" Campaign Funding Policy
Washington D.C. 12 May 2000 - Bush reported raising $3.8 million last month, bringing
his record-setting total to more than $84 million, while Gore took in $1.1 million and
received $2.5 million in federal funds, according to campaign finance reports released
yesterday. In stark contrast to Election funding madness stands Jackie Strike. Although
offered large sums of money for her campaign, Strike stays the course on her funding-free
campaign trail, having accepted in her words "not even a dime" for her election efforts.
The independent candidate pleads voters to foster worthy charities rather than her own
presidential aspirations. While the average Bush campaign contribution is $258, the average
contribution to Gore $123, the average contribution to Strike remains $0.
