Democratic congressional districts get nearly twice as much stimulus money as Republican congressional districts. Who would have predicted that?  Washington Examiner reports here.

The Mercatus Center analysis also found that Democratic
congressional districts received on average almost double the funding
of Republican congressional districts. Republican congressional
districts received on average $232 million in stimulus funds while
Democratic districts received $439 million on average.

?We found that there is a correlation [relating to the partisanship
of congressional districts],? de Rugy said. Her regression analysis
found that stimulus funds are expected to decrease by 24.19 percent if
a district is represented by a Republican…..

…..Finally, the Mercatus analysis shows that a majority of the funds
allocated went to public rather than private entities — nearly $88
billion to $69 billion. While some of the money given to public
entities may eventually filter down to the private sector, it’s much
less transparent how money given to public entities is spurring
economic growth and job creation.
