    ‘A rich donor can make a $20,000 donation to a party or one of its candidates in each of six states, two territories and to the federal branch of the party. That means they can donate $180,000. And they can do this annually.

    ‘Then, in an act of sneakiness, when an election is held, the cap resets so that there are two capped periods in that year. That mounts up to $720,000 over three years. This doesn’t include the other donations that our rich donor can make to entities associated with their favoured party and friendly third-party campaigners. There is an overall annual cap of $640,000 for the political donations our donor can make in a year.’
