The number 1 in the list Las Vegas sands donates 100% of their donations exclusively to the Conservatives ( Republicans). American Financial Group ,Walmart Stores, Exxon Mobile, Union Pacific Corp and Fedex are some of them who donate a substantial part of their political funding to the Republican Party.
