State Senate candidate Rodney Hubbard had another big fundraiser quarter, raising $85,147 between January 1st and March 31st. After expenditures of $75,000 (which included the return of a total of $60,000 in over-limit campaign contributions), campaign reports show Hubbard with $105,585.60 cash on hand, dwarfing his opponents’ combined campaign coffers.
Rep. Connie Johnson, who is also running for 5th District Senate seat, posted her second Limited Activity Report in a row, reflecting less that $1,000 raised in the last six months.
Rep Tom Villa, who decided not to run for the seat after all, had made a personal loan to his campaign of $165,000. The latest campaign reports shows that money was returned on March 15.
Rep. Robin Wright Jones, who had just $8,527.09 in the bank last quarter, has not yet posted her quarterly report. [UPDATE: Wright-Jones’ report shows $11,250 raised, and just $8,227 in the bank.]
