I think he has forgotten one though. I think Amy K has. Do not know for a fact but I have reason to believe that she has since she was pro wolf hunt.

Per open secrets, this is what they gave to Minnesota candidates in 2012 dflprincess Dec 2012 #2

I think that is the money we see. Very possible that NRA donors are giving back door style. glinda Dec 2012 #3

The NRA publishes their list of recipients.

I've seen it on DU several times.

Wish I had a link - sorry.

[div class = "excerpt"]
Kline, John (R-MN) House $2,500
Peterson, Collin C (D-MN) House $2,500
Paulsen, Erik (R-MN) House $2,250
Cravaack, Chip (R-MN) House $2,000
Walz, Timothy J (D-MN) House $2,000
Bachmann, Michele (R-MN) House $1,000
Pawlenty, Tim (R) Pres $1,000

I was surprised at how relatively small the amounts donated are. The most they gave was $9,900 to Steve Fincher (R-TN) and Jim Renacci Jim (R-OH)

They only gave to 12 senate candidates and of them only 1 Democrat (not Klobuchar).

The low numbers are suspect to me. I know Amy was chomping at the bit before any one else to delist the wolves. This is strictly for shooters. A small group of shooters.
