Gov. Charlie Crist (R-FL), who is on the cusp of leaving the Republican Party and running for Senate as an independent, will be giving partial refunds to donors who ask for their money back, the St. Petersburg Times reports.
One donor who will be wanting his money back: Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX), the chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee. Cornyn gave Crist $10,000 last year from his leadership PAC.
Up through this the end of the first quarter of this year, the Crist campaign had $7.6 million in cash on hand, compared to $3.9 million cash on hand for his Republican rival Marco Rubio and $3.7 million cash on hand for Democratic Rep. Kendrick Meek.
