Sayre Reports $67,000 for quarter


Scott Sayre has more than people just putting up signs, and wearing buttons, they are opening their wallets also. See this SBE link here for the details.

He also has $32,700 in the bank, and inquiries of the campagin said fund raising is a daily effort, and that as Scott goes around to speak to local businesses, the donations follow.
Senator Hanger during this time reported raising $68,450, and reports a total on hand of $117,563.
All in all, that doesn't look to bad for a challenger, it's not like we are in the high priced Media Markets of Richmond, NOVA or Tidewater. Out here it's 'shoe leather' politicking, not that the media buys won't be coming from both sides, but the 'word is on the street', Emmett has a serious challenge on his hands.... There will be another report due right before the primary, it will be interesting to see, that also!
Update: Check out all this PAC and Richmond $$$ that Incumbents enjoy, and challengers need to overcome.

  1. Doing the rough math, atleast 38K out of 68K is from OUTSIDE the District for Sen. Hanger.

  2. I believe it's only twenty eight (28) donors of $68K... (Hanger)

    Scott raised $50K from 94 donors, (the balance in-kinds)...

    Emmett got $25,000 from one PAC alone...$38K from outside may be a little modest.. most likely a much higher outside the district total..
