Q4 Raised, Spent, Cash on Hand – Senate Races
I’ve been cutting and pasting (rounded off) data from various Q4 campaign reports. Today we’ll do senators and senate hopefuls, like this:
STATE – Senator – Raised in Q4 – Spent in Q4 – Current COH
I’ve also inserted notes where warranted.
ARIZONA – John McCain (R) - 812,000 - 761,000 - 5,055,000
(Former AZ congressman J.D. Hayworth has announced he will challenge McCain in the primary. The election is August 24, 2010. If you want to see him in action, Hayworth will headline the Washoe County Republican Party’s Lincoln Day dinner on Thursday, February 11, 2010.)
CALIFORNIA – Barbara Boxer (D) - 1,859,000 - 951,000 - 7,259,000
CALIFORNIA – Chuck DeVore (R) – 449,000 - 367,000 - 226,000
CALIFORNIA – Carly Fiorina (R) - 3,584,000 - 831,000 - 2,754,000
(Have you seen Fiorina’s #demonsheep ad yet? It went viral on the ‘net yesterday.)

CONNECTICUT – Richard Blumenthal (D) – no #s
(Blumenthal entered the race after Dodd announced he wouldn’t seek re-election.)
CONNECTICUT – Linda McMahon (R) - 3,036,000 - 3,398,000 - 1,088,000
CONNECTICUT – Peter Schiff (R) - 1,486,000 - 399,000 - 1,087,000
CONNECTICUT – Rob Simmons (R) - 634,000 - 381,000 - 1,339,000
*
FLORIDA – Kendrick Meek (D) 1,200,000 N/A 3,300,000
FLORIDA – Charlie Crist (R) - 2,110,000 - 785,000 - 7,559,000
FLORIDA – Marco Rubio (R) 1,763,000 - 579,000 - 2,087,000
(Mark Rubio is a darling of the conservative net ‘roots.)(That’s new media lingo for “grassroots.”)
*
INDIANA – Evan Bayh (D) - 311,000 - 54,000 - 12,987,000
(I thought Obama should’ve picked Evan Bayh for his VP. Bayh is one of my favorite DC Dems.)
*
NEVADA – Harry Reid (D) - 2,020,000 - 2,061,000 - 8,691,000
NEVADA – Sharon Angle (R) - 551,000 - 447,000 - 596,000
NEVADA – John Chachas (R) - 513,000 - 157,000 - 1,679,000
NEVADA – Sue Lowden (R) - 819,000 - 321,000 - 498,000
NEVADA – Danny Tarkanian (R) - 377,000 - 326,000 - 257,000
NEVADA – Chuck Kozak (R) – 160,000 – 135,000 – 25,000
NEVADA – Mark Amodei (R) – 16,600 – 47,900 – 10,000
NEVADA – Charles Flume Sr (R) – 15,000 – 3,900 – 11,000
NEVADA – Bill Parson (R) – 35,000 – 32,000 – 3,000
NEVADA – Mike Wiley (R) – 5,700 – 5,300 – 400
NEVADA – Terry Suominen (R) – 2,800- 2,400 – 400
*
PENNSYLVANIA – Joe Sestak (D) - 652,000 - 233,000 - 5,120,000
PENNSYLVANIA – Arlen Specter (D) - 1,155,000 - 1,197,000 - 8,669,000
PENNSYLVANIA – Peg Luksik (R) - 163,000 - 145,000 - 66,000
PENNSYLVANIA – Pat Toomey (R) - 1,669,000 - N/A - 2,786,000
(Is any Republican NOT rooting for Pat Toomey?)
*
SOUTH CAROLINA – Jim DeMint (R) - 541,000 - 173,000 - 3,229,000
(DeMint’s not in any danger, but I’m including him because his name has been floated for 2012. At present, he’s considered by many to be the de facto leader of the conservative faction of the Republican party.)
*
SOUTH DAKOTA – John Thune (R) - 898,000 - 407,000 - 6,021,000
(Thune’s name is also in the hat for 2010.)
*
VERMONT – Patrick Leahy (D) - 364,000 - 184,000 - 2,742,000
(Leahy, the Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman, yesterday ripped Senator Sessions for a letter he wrote to AG Eric Holder demanding a hearing re: the Christmas Day bombing.)
*
WISCONSIN – Russ Feingold (D) - 947,000 - 421,000 - 3,654,000
(Feingold was in the news recently, of course, because the Supreme Court partially overturned his campaign finance bill. Politico described his reaction to the decision as “seething mad.”)
