Brunner lags far behind in U.S. Senate campaign cash
Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner continues to lag far behind all other candidates in campaign cash for the U.S. Senate race.
Brunner’s Federal Election Commission report for the final three months of 2009, showed she raised $92,588, less than the $143,624 she spent and had just $60,859 on hand at the start of 2010.
Meanwhile, Lt. Gov. Lee Fisher, Brunner’s opponent for the Democratic nomination, had net contributions of $769,580 and had about $1.8 million on hand at the start of the year, his FEC report said.
As previously reported, in the battle for the Republican nomination, Rob Portman, the former Cincinnati-area congressman, raised $1.4 million during the quarter and had $6 million on hand.
Tom Ganley, the Cleveland-area car dealer challenging Portman for the GOP nomination, had nearly $1.3 million on hand at the start of the year. The bulk of Ganley’s money has come from loans Ganley made to the campaign. The campaign received loans of more than $1.5 million during the last quarter of 2009, his campaign finance report showed.
