New polls show Hillary Clinton with a substantial lead in the race for president. Not sure the polls are correct, but do know there are still ‘big bucks’ being spent to support both candidates.
Saw one recent Donald Trump ad, paid for by Future 45. So I looked up Future 45. The Ricketts and Adelson families are the major supporters. Ricketts is Joe Ricketts, founder of TD Ameritrade and owner of the Chicago Cubs, based on my research. Sheldon and Miriam Adelson are in the casino business in the US and China. They (the two families) have provided $25 million to be used in a few key states, including North Carolina.
For fair play, I searched ‘rich folks’ for Hillary and discovered such names as Mark Cuban (wealthy owner of the Dallas Mavericks NBA team), Warren Buffett, Oprah Winfrey and more.
Ever wonder why so much interest by so many rich folks?

Early voting is underway. For details, google Bladen County Board of Elections, call them at 910-862-6951 or stop by their office on Cypress Street, behind the Elizabethtown Post Office. Can’t vote at the office, but can at several sites in the county. Hours apparently differ at various locations.
