| Description | Republican gubernatorial candidate Susana Martinez outraised Democrat Diane Denish more than 3-1 in the last reporting period, but Denish still has almost $2 million more than Martinez going forward.
That’s pretty much where we’d expect things to be. Martinez should have raised more money in the reporting period immediately following her primary victory – her party had been waiting to gather around one candidate and get on with focusing on Denish, so Martinez should have raised money at a quick pace. But Denish has spent two years collecting money, so she should have more on hand.
Martinez raised $611,247.21 and spent $453,371.66 during the reporting period, according to her report. That left her with $300,020.29 on hand. Denish raised $187,628.91 and spent $656,732.40 during the reporting period, according to her report. That left her with $2,187,283.88 on hand.
Among Martinez’s most notable contributions this reporting period were $250,000 from the Republican Governors Association, $25,000 from the state GOP and $25,000 from Jalapeno Corporation, the company owned by state GOP Chairman Harvey Yates. Though Denish has accepted some large contributions in the past, this report from Denish includes only smaller contributions. |
