| Description | In the fundraising battle of the three Pennsylvania House Democrats considering running for the Senate, we have a clear fundraising winner: Rep. Joe Sestak (D-Pa.)
Sestak, who has been seriously considering a Senate campaign, raised $550,000 in the first three months of the year – nearly as much as Joe Torsella, who already announced his Senate candidacy – and has an eye-popping $3.3 million in his campaign account. That's a significant sum for a second-term member of Congress.
Earlier in the year, Sestak was not inclined to run against Sen. Arlen Specter (R-Pa.), but the possibility that Specter could lose a Republican primary to Pat Toomey and the lack of announced Democratic candidates prompted him to reconsider. |
