"NFL owners, or at least those whose donations were available, mostly donated to Republicans in both the 2008 and 2012 elections. But New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft was the owner most loyal to the Democratic side."

"
Kraft donated a total of $204,000 to Democratic PACs from 2008 to 2014, while Atlanta Falcons owner Arthur Blank came second with $177,400. However, neither donated as much or as often as their Republican counterparts."
