Looks like the payments are done in 4 instalments with the first due Jan 23. a 50,000 refundable deposit. Max donation is 1750$ per person. 200 donations of 1750, Maybe I underestimate how many donations someone like Gould can muster.
How many candidates drop out before the first non refundable deposit comes due.

I think it would be very troubling (for the party) if a leadership candidate was not able to fundraise $350,000 for their leadership campaign. What would that mean for fundraising for an election campaign?
