But at the end of the day, I have 33480, and you don't,' " said Sid Dinerstein, chairman of the Palm Beach Republican Executive Committee.</p><p>Palm Beach long has been Florida's symbol of wealth, a 16-mile barrier island full of sprawling mansions and exclusive condominiums, homes or second homes to numerous billionaires and millionaires.</p><p>In December, Bloomberg Businessweek declared 33480 the richest ZIP code in America.</p><p>That image is a bit misleading, said geographer Stephen R. Higley of Birmingham, Ala., author of "Privilege, Power, and Place: The Geography of the American Upper Class<em>." </em>The island also has plenty of more-modest housing and apartments, he said, and many luxury residences are second homes<em>.</em></p><p>Still, Higley noted, "There are some spectacularly wealthy areas there."</p><p>Among residents &mdash; year-round and seasonal &mdash; are <a class="taxInlineTagLink" id="PEBSL000163" title="Donald Trump" href="/topic/economy-business-finance/construction/donald-trump-PEBSL000163.topic">Donald Trump</a>, financier <a class="taxInlineTagLink" id="PEBSL00412" title="Carl Icahn" href="/topic/economy-business-finance/carl-icahn-PEBSL00412.topic">Carl Icahn</a>, Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross, financier George Lindemann and billionaire brothers David and Bill Koch, all of whom gave to Republican presidential candidates this year. The sugar-growing Fanjul family split &mdash; Alexander and Jos&eacute; "Pepe" Fanjul supported Romney; their brothers Alfonso and Andres Fanjul gave to Obama.</p><p>Because FEC reports tie donations to donors' legal addresses, not to the locations of events, contributions by seasonal residents such as Trump and Icahn may not count as coming from the ZIP code. For that reason, a candidate's total haul at fundraisers there can far exceed what is attributed to Palm Beach residents.</p><p>For example, Ross threw a house party for Romney in January that reportedly drew 600 people. Diamond said it might have been the largest political fundraiser ever in Palm Beach. Dinerstein said it raised $1.8 million &mdash; or nearly double the total reported by the FEC as originating in Palm Beach.</p><p>Democrats Michele and Howard Kessler,<strong> </strong>founder of the Kessler Group investment company, also threw a party in January that featured first lady <a class="taxInlineTagLink" id="PECLB005380" title="Michelle Obama" href="/topic/politics/michelle-obama-PECLB005380.topic">Michelle Obama</a> and drew 300 people, according to The Palm Beach Post. Tickets started at $500, suggesting the total likely exceeded $150,000. Yet the FEC reports Obama's contributions from 33480 residents, raised during 13 months, totaled $108,000.</p><p>"Why do people come here? It's the Willie Sutton question," said Palm Beach Democratic Executive Committee Chairman Mark Alan Siegel. "When they asked Willie Sutton why he robbed banks, he said, 'That's where the money is.' "</p><p>But Siegel noted that traditional fundraising may become outdated thanks to "super PACs" &mdash; privately controlled campaign committees that, based on a 2010U.S. Supreme Courtruling, can receive and spend unlimited amounts on candidates.</p><p>Still, 33480 may remain a favorite political ATM.</p><p>Diamond said that, at a January Palm Beach fundraiser for Romney, Bill Koch pledged to contribute $1 million to Romney's super PAC, Restore Our Future. Records show he had given $250,000 to the PAC earlier. Koch's spokesman, Brad Goldstein, said he could not confirm the report.</p><p><em><a href="mailto:smpowers@tribune.com">smpowers@tribune.com</a> or 407-420-5441</em></p>

//		Only need to find 1 occurrance of any of the above to confirm ad blocking is used. 
//		No need to continue searching through other portions of the page.
