ST. LOUIS • The biggest political donor in Missouri history just had a really big month.
Between June 1 and July 1, groups funded by St. Louis-based conservative activist Rex Sinquefield donated more than $4.45 million to three Republican candidates for Missouri statewide office, records show. More than $1.75 million of those contributions were made on Friday.
Those kinds of numbers would look like typos in almost any U.S. venue other than Missouri, one of the few places in America where a wealthy donor can still write any size check he wants to any candidate.
Recipients of campaign donations from Rex Sinquefield-funded organizations between June 1 and July 1, 2016
• Catherine Hanaway, candidate for the Republican nomination for Missouri governor: $2,358,900
• Kurt Schaefer, candidate for the Republican nomination for Missouri attorney general: $1,401,517
• Bev Randles, candidate for the Republican nomination for Missouri lieutenant governor: $691,850
