Women who live in America’s suburbs are supporting President Donald Trump’s re-election bid, says a new report at OpenSecrets.org, that shows Trump is benefiting from a surge in large-dollar donations from women in suburbs – more than any Democrat candidate.
While mainstream media are reporting some polls that suggest Trump is losing the support of women, the report by Open Secrets, part of the Center for Responsive Politics, shows the president has over 10,500 large-dollar contributions from women in suburbs, and has received $8,293,135 from them – the largest amount than any of the Democrat 2020 candidates.
“Suburban women, who power a significant electoral battleground, are a key demographic for 2020,” wrote Grace Haley at the research group that tracks money in U.S. politics. “Since Trump’s inauguration, more than 7,000 women in suburban districts have given large-dollar contributions to his campaign. That totals $8 million, the most of all candidates.”
Paul Bedard at the Washington Examiner, drew attention to the Open Secrets report.
He noted that 28 percent of Trump’s “itemized contributions” were from women in 2016.
“For the 2020 election, they are 35 [percent],” Bedard reported.
On paper, Trump ranks fifth in donations from women at $15.1 million, with the leader in donations from women reported from Sen. Bernie Sanders at $17.1 million, followed by Sen. Elizabeth Warren, Mayor Pete Buttigieg, and Sen. Kamala Harris, who have all raised $15 million or more from women, Open Secrets reported.
However, the research group also observed that “Trump’s contributions from women are most certainly higher than $15 million” since the Trump campaign does not report demographic information about its small donors:
Campaigns are not required to itemize donations of $200 or less, so we do not have demographic information about Trump’s small donors...

The libs heads will explode. I’ll get my rain coat.
Trust me, he’s going to get slaughtered worse than he did in 2016.
Hmmm. Just yesterday I saw a story about how his female suburban support was slipping.
So legions of secret Trump voters are out there. We don't know how many. Many of them are like me and tell pollsters to stuff it or simply don't have time for polls because they're busy with their new jobs or existing jobs giving them higher wages.
Yeah! this time it’s really over for Trump.....s/
I don’t understand why the Democrat nominee won’t be up 50 points?!...
LOL!
More fake news. We all know women, latinos/latinas, African Americans and glbtqxyzpds hate him.
Gilbatiquixeyzeepods...I think that's how you pronounce that.
Hey, great band name!
I usually say “gilberts”.
It’s funny that the headline makes it look like this conclusion is from poll results.
Waiting for someone to report this as our husbands telling us how to vote (again).
LOL brings back.memories of Hillary wondering why she wasn’t 50 points ahead.
“Gilbatiquixeyzeepods”
That is much better. Thought I was loosing it.
Yesterday’s story was how women were moving away from Trump, the day before that they were moving to Trump. Polls are useless in the modern era.
Fits me a sammich and fetch me a beer. LOL! Something you NEVER hear at my house.
Yeah … 90% chance Hillary “The Chosen One” Clinton gets elected in 2020.
I heard it on CNNN this morning ...
That was my reference. :)
My suburban wife thinks the Donald is evil incarnate.
Somehow she thinks Don will take away women’s right to vote and other absurdities.
