Neither have great fundraising numbers.
The Houston Chronicle has a good article on the two candidates running for Harris County Judge if you like the 30,000 ft level. Here are some more details. You can review campaign finance reports for Harris County candidates at https://ethics.harrisvotes.com/CampaignFinanceReports/COR.aspx. The amounts are not very impressive. In 2022 Alex Mealer spent about $10 Million in his losing effort against Lina Hidalgo. Abbott has pledged $20 Million to win seats in Harris County.
Orlando Sanchez
Sanchez raised $107,165, spent $141,418, and has a Cash on Hand balance of $32,527. He has an outstanding loan of $234,513. In this period he added a personal loan of $15,000 to this total but I cannot find any report going back 8 years where this $234,513 loan was reported. I can only assume it came from his own pocket and spent it along the way. In 2018 he ran for County Treasurer, spent most of this loan, and lost. He carries this balance to be able to be reimbursed at a later date. That usually happens after a candidate wins. They continue to fundraise, paying off their loan first. Of the $107,165 $75,000 came from the 9 individuals below.

Plummer raised $145,881, spent $70,492, and has a Cash on Hand balance of $70,161. She has a personal loan of $45,000. Out of the $145,881 raised $75,000 came from 8 individuals/PACs below.
