Raising Campaign Cash: Democratic Senate Candidates

I’m not well trained on the Federal Election Commission site but I think I have these fundraising numbers correct. Reports were due yesterday. I’ve included only the top three candidates. I included Thierry Tchenko only because he filed a report. The others have not filed and/or are not serious candidates. As I have said in the past, this isn’t a fuckin game.

Congressman Allred is the clear frontrunner with a haul of $4.6 Million for this period alone. Gutierrez, who is favored by the left of the party has only raised $630,859 and has $379,877 COH. It is concerning because this race will require $50-$60 Million. Tchenko must have spent all his money on his website. Everyone else is just not serious about running for office.
