Celebrity stalking and campaign finance make addictive bedfellows for the voyeurs among us

Jake and I have spent nearly an entire afternoon on Fund Race, which I found via Favorite Ex. Basically, you put in a zipcode and you can find everyone who donated money to a candidate within that zip, their address, how much they gave and to whom. So there I was, looking to see if I had any Bush supporters in the 'hood (not many) and stumbled across Chris Parnell ($250 to Dean and then later, $250 to Kerry). I also discovered that hottie Rufus, CEO of Nerve lives right near me. Yum.

Further perusal turned up Joan Jett, Gwyneth Paltrow and a host of others. Jake took LA, I took NYC, and here are the results. A few I've turned up since...

Ralph Lauren, $2,000 Kerry
Sean Combs, $2,000 Al Sharpton
Meg Ryan (hate her hate her hate her, by the way), $2,000 Clark
Harvey Weinstein, $2,000 Dean
Ellen Barkin, $2,000 Kerry
Robert DeNiro, $2,000 Kerry
Al Franken, $2,000 Kerry
Dweezil Zappa, $1,000 Gephardt
John McEnroe, $2,000 Kerry
Julianne Moore, $2,000 Kerry
Marlo Thomas, $2,000 Kerry
Uma Thurman, $2,000 Kerry
Donald Trump, $2,000 Kerry (Trump's a Democrat???)
Rupert Murdoch, $2,000 Bush

Now, this list may not seem "fair & balanced," but seriously, all the Bush supporters are investment bankers and shit. Not household names. Jake found a few on that other coast, though. Go check 'em out.
