Designer Amsale Aberra of Ethiopia contributed $1,000 to Barack Obama’s presidential election. No record was found for model Gelila Bekele, but her boyfriend Tyler Perry is a strong backer of Barack Obama, who contributed $4,600 to his campaign.
Based on campaign contribution data, Ethiopians are overwhelmingly in support of Barack Obama, we were hard pressed to find donors to Republican John McCain, although we found some. From Hotel workers to Physicians, Ethiopians and Ethiopian-Americans are opening their wallet to Barack Obama’s presidential campaign.
The maximum amount an individual can contribute to a candidate is $2,300. You may contribute up to a total of $4,600 for a single candidate in primary ($2,300) and general election($2,300).
