Kochs, Outside Groups Blew $85 MILLION Backing Nikki Haley.

Outside political advocacy groups spent $85.2 million supporting Nikki Haley’s presidential campaign, leading to the former South Carolina governor securing merely 89 of the 2,429 available Republican primary delegates before her withdrawal on Wednesday — a total cost of over $957,300 per delegate.

Among Haley’s largest benefactors were Yes for America Action and Americans for Prosperity Action, who — along with Haley’s campaign committee — collectively spent around $120 million during this election cycle. The former South Carolina governor spent approximately $1.3 million for each delegate secured — three times greater than the median US home price.
