1Q 2015 Virginia Campaign Money Numbers Are Now Available

16

Virginia candidates’ fundraising numbers for the first quarter of 2015 are due today, and they’re starting to trickle in. According to VPAP: “By 6 p.m. this evening, VPAP will post reports from General Assembly candidates and major state party/caucus committees that were received by COB at the State Department of Elections.  Candidates and PACs have until midnight to file their reports. VPAP will update its listing early Thursday morning.” Should be interesting. Anyway, here’s what I’ve heard so far.

Gov. McAuliffe: His “Common Good VA” PAC raised $758,452, ending with $334,091 cash on hand.

LG Ralph Northam: His “Stronger Together” PAC raised $44k and ended with $83,223 cash on hand.

AG Mark Herring: His “One Commonwealth” PAC raised $72k and ended with $41k cash on hand.

DPVA: Raised $693,555, ended with $15,537 cash on hand.

RPV: Raised $95,554, ended with $9,705 cash on hand.

State Senate

Virginia Senate Republican Caucus: Raised $230,247 and ended with $761,701 cash on hand.

(lots more on the “flip”)

District 6: Senator Lynwood Lewis (D) raised $95k and had $119k cash on hand. Lewis’ Republican oppponent, Richard Ottinger, raised $84k and had $68k cash on hand.

District 7: Democrat Gary McCollum tweeted, “We raised over a quarter-million in our first fundraising quarter in the race!” The exact numbers: $250,815 raised, $209,975 cash on hand. Sen. Frank Wagner (R) raised $89,495, ended with $292,135 cash on hand. This should be a great race!

District 10: I hear that Democratic candidate Dan Gecker raised around $240,000. UPDATE: According to VPAP, Gecker raised over $230k, very close to what I’d been hearing. Democrat Alex McMurtrie raised $50,000 (100% from himself), ending with $17,942  cash on hand. Democrat Emily Francis raised $61,811 and ended with $43,211 on hand. Republican Glen Sturtevant, who is unopposed for the nomination, raised $102,865 and had $81,698 on hand.

District 13: Democrat Jill McCabe raised $65k, Republican Sen. Dick Black raised $35k, but had significantly more cash on hand than McCabe ($217k vs. $65k).

District 21: Republican Nancy Dye raised $63k and had $85k cash on hand, while State Senator John Edwards (D) raised just $5k and had only $32k cash on hand. Hmmm.

District 29: Republican Hal Parrish reported that he raised $330,000. Democrats Atif Qarni raised $35,744, had $48,436 cash on hand; Jeremy McPike raised $50,221, had $52,243 on hand; Michael Futrell raised $31,717, had $359 on hand.

86th District: Democrat Jennifer Boysko raised $70,340, had $128,559 on hand. Nice job!

87th District: With Del. David Ramadan (R) dropping out, this should open up a chance for Democrat Jack Tiwari, but he only raised $1,845, with just $1,377 on hand. Gotta crank that up big time, and fast!
