DOLE For President, 1996 campaign

Selected Albanian Contributors to Bob Dole's 1996 Campaign Fund:
Note that a (-)sign indicates a refund, as in " -500"
These selected contributors from 29 Albanian American Contributors total about $25,500, but I am looking through a list of some 33,670 individual contributors in Dole's 1996 Campaign, alone. Albanian names are tricky, so I expect there are dozens more, each good for $1000 per capita, buried in that list.
