Finance Reports in the 12th
The race in the 12th is unbelievable. The amount of money being spent in this race is just staggering. The reports look like this...
Raised:
Walter Stosch: $1,007,122 ($254,873 this period)
Joe Blackburn: $241, 595 ($91,376 this period)
Cash on Hand:
Walter Stosch: $307,570
Joe Blackburn: $85,589
Stosch has more cash on hand than Blackburn has raised. I wouldn't think Stosch will finish spending all the money, he has already spent almost a million bux, so its hard to say.
As to my prediction, I can't imagine the scale of the upset this would cause if Blackburn were to win. When was the last time an incumbent was defeated when outspending their opponent 4-1; especially when that 4-1 is a million dollars?

Stosch sure keeps spending money, maybe that is a sign that Blackburn is doing well...without the money

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that Blackburn wins. I think it's going to be close.

There are a lot of Blackburn signs in the Richmond suburbs.

Wouldn't it be great if Blackburn won on being honest and sincere. A grass roots candidate going against a career politician that is supported by individuals rather than big cooperations

Check out VPAP website and see how the special intrest groups have come to Stosch's rescue. Pay back for 22 years of favors. Very few individual contributions compared to Senator to be Blackburn.
