So this may be of more immediate interest to me than to the broad swath of Campaign Spot readers, but in the Low Country – the portion of south, coastal South Carolina, the two leading candidates in terms of political donations are John McCain… and Hillary Clinton!

And there’s money in these communities. Michael Jordan had a house on the island for a while. Sun City is huge off-island retirement community, and Hilton Head has more than its share of retirees, as well as more than its share of transplanted yankees.

Still, not all of Hillary’s money can come from transplanted New Yorkers, as Rudy has gotten all of $400 from residents on the island. But it seems like Hilton Head – population about 34,000 – is as close to a pro-Hillary outpost as you’re going to find in the state; she’s received 17 percent of her total donations from this one island community, $13,100 out of a total of $77,000 total in the Palmetto State

The McCain news doesn’t quite surprise me – there’s a lot of old Navy guys in that neck of the woods.
