“Cornyn’s war chest benefits from bundlers’

CPI (Dallas Morning News):

When Sen. John Cornyn needed help fortifying his campaign war chest against a pesky and potentially dangerous tea party challenger, a small army of lobbyists volunteered.

Government influencers representing Goldman Sachs, Koch Industries and Lockheed Martin ranked among the “bundlers” who helped fill Cornyn’s coffers with nearly $1.1 million during 2013 and early 2014, according to a Center for Public Integrity review of federal campaign finance filings. Their contributions amounted to about $1 out of every $9 Cornyn raised.
