Who are the millionaires bankrolling the 2016 presidential race?

For three decades, federal laws restrained how much money rich people could pour into presidential campaigns. No more.

Because of a series of court decisions, the limits have effectively disappeared, and this election is the first to see the full effect.

Wealthy individuals — many of whom are executives in the financial services, energy, technology and entertainment industries — have given millions to the super PACs supporting candidates.

So far the names of 86 donors of $500,000 or more have been revealed in campaign disclosure forms. Here’s a look at who they are.
