In Class exercise 3 26

In Class exercise

1.I found statistics for San Diego, California, which is where I was born. The population is over one million, so I need to take into account that there will probably be more crime there than in a smaller city, because of the higher population of people. There were 3,141 violent crimes in total, 36 murders, 159 forcible rapes, 987 robberies, 1,959 aggravated assaults, 22,479 property crimes, 3564 burglaries, 12,296 larceny thefts, 6,619 motor vehicle thefts, and 113 cases of arson. I found the car theft statistics interested because our car got stolen when we lived there in about 1993.
2.Troy Kelley received the most political donations under the house with over 237,000. He financed his own campaign. Christopher Marr received the most under the senate with 420,201. The Senate Democratic Committee raised the most for Marr. The NRA political victory fund was the most generous in Washington State. Most of the money went to the republican party, about 80%. Carl H Lindner was the largest insurance, with American financial and the total is 1,760,000. The largest beer/wine industry donator was BG Distribution partners. Rick Perry, a republican candidate, got the most money. Tom Craddick, another republican, also recieved a lot of money. The largest donor in the casino/gambling industry was Ohio Legacy Fund. They spent the most money on Issue 3.
3. I looked up my boyfriend, Matt Hoagland. Surprisingly, some of the hits I found on google.com were actually him. The hits about him included his membership in his fraternity, Delta Upsilon, and showed him being president. It also showed one of his quotes from the Daily Evergreen, and how he won one of the activities for the rec center in 2003. Other than that, I could not find much on him. I found multiple other Matt Hoaglands, most specifically a high school social studies teacher.
