A few weeks ago, I read some articles that said the National Rifle Association (NRA) is having some funding problems. That its contributions are way down. The chart above (from McClatchey newspapers) shows that may be true. At this point in the 2014 elections, the NRA had spent about $16 million to support their favorite Republican candidates. In 2018, they have spent only about one-tenth of that -- about $1.6 million.
