$26.9 Million: The DNC, State Democratic Party Funding Alliances: Have a direct, financial interest in the Clinton candidacy . . . Here's how and why
Clintons move last year to lock in fundraising alliances with 33 state Democratic parties has already added $26.9 million to the mountain of hard money she has raised so far [Bloomberg].
Clinton Uses State Links to Raise $27 Million. Fundraising alliances with 33 states netted the candidate $26.9 million before the first v**e was even cast.

Under the agreements, the first $2,700 of a contribution goes straight to Clintons campaign, the next $33,400 to the Democratic National Committee, and the remainder is split evenly across the 33 often cash-strapped state committees.
In other words, the DNC and the state Democratic Party organizations have a direct, financial interest in the Clinton candidacy.
