@lachlan It's a myth that it was all small donors — they also had a massive traditional program. But they did raise a ton of $ online..

@lachlan It's confusing in part because they often got people up to $200 or $500 or $1000 in small chunks, which I guess I'm including….

@BuzzFeedBen @lachlan as is Romney, 94% of the July donors are $250 or less contributions, as reported from the July FEC filing out today.

@BuzzFeedBen Right. That study measured donors' total contributions rather than each individual contribution. More relevant, IMO.

@lachlan @BuzzFeedBen We should never forget a good chunk of the President’s “small chunks” were fraudulent, per Doodad Pro and co.
