| Description | Fund raising lags, but poll looks promising
MARK JOHNSON
Raleigh Bureau
RALEIGH - Former Charlotte Mayor Richard Vinroot heads into his third campaign for governor with at least a couple of advantages over his competitors for the Republican nomination, but a lot less money.
Vinroot raised $16,300 during the first six months of the year and had $24,000 on hand, the least amount of money among the four Republican candidates whose campaign finance reports were filed last week.
N.C. Senate Republican leader Patrick Ballantine of Wilmington raised more than 30 times that amount, $519,000, and still had $505,000 on hand at the end of June, making him the top Republican fund-raiser.
"It doesn't worry me," Vinroot said. "I'm satisfied we'll do what we need to do before the primary." |
