Which party has the most rich people?

Their was a study done on this recently, the conclusion is that, by political party, Democrats have the concentration of wealth. This might fly in the face of those who don't know, but consider that between Bill Gates and Warren Buffet alone, that is a large gap to cover. Democrats on average make more money too.

Wall Street is not really a Republican thing either, most of the participants are Democrats.

While Republicans often get the reputation for being “the party of the rich,” seven of the 10 richest members of Congress are Democrats, according to the Center for Responsive Politics (CRP).

CRP compiled a list of the 10 richest members of Congress using 2012 personal finance disclosure information, the latest available.

These wealthy Democrats are not afraid to use their big bucks and high-powered connections to get ahead.
