How many millionaires are Democratic congressmen?

Answer 1

The New York Post recently did a study on this question and found that:

73 House Democrats are millionaires

101 House Republicans are millionaires

37 Senate Democrats are millionaires

30 Senate Republicans are millionaires

This is based on overall wealth, not annual income.

The wealth criteria comes from required financial reports that are generally done in ranges. ($10,000 - $50,000, for example) They don't always report exact figures.

The total number above is 241, out of 435 House members and 100 Senate members. So 40% of the House are millionaires and 67% of the Senate are millionaires.

And your question should be "How many millionaires are Democratic congressmen?"

Democratic congressmen (and women) are members of the Democratic Party.

You could also ask "How many democrats in congress are millionaires?"

Members of the Democratic Party are called Democrats (with a capital "D")

Members of the Republican Party are called Republicans (with a capital "R")

You wouldn't say "How many millionaires are republic congressmen?"
