WCPO/Cincinnati: Obama Campaign Contribution Mix-Up Costs Couple

Jump to Comments

Alex Weech, of Maineville, is supporting Senator Barrack Obama for president.

“Well, I think he’s one of the most appealing presidential candidates that’s come along in a long, long while,” he said.

His wife, Barbara, also likes what she sees in the senator from Illinois.

“My husband’s a staunch supporter of Obama,” she said. “This is the first time he’s ever given money to any presidential campaign more than once.”

So, the Weech’s donated to Senator Obama’s campaign online.

But last Friday, when they intended to give $25, they were shocked to receive an e-mail thanking them for their $2,300 contribution!
