(Rochester, MN) - Today, the Brian Davis for Congress campaign announces that their second quarter net fundraising was the strongest of all candidates seeking election to Minnesota's First District in 2008.
During the second quarter - April 1 to June 30 - Brian Davis for Congress had $391,601 in total receipts and a net gain in cash-on-hand of $326,273, compared to $186,584 for Congressman Walz. Total contributions from individuals to the Davis campaign were over $268,000 with a net of $376,718 cash-on-hand. This difference in net fundraising is due to campaign expenses with the Davis campaign reporting $65,330 in disbursements compared to $251,502 for the Walz campaign.
Stated Davis, "We're receiving strong grass roots support from Minnesotans, both financially and by volunteer efforts. Residents of the First District are concerned about their financial future and the future health of our nation. Like me, most voters are deeply troubled that Congress cannot remove barriers to oil and gas development in our country so that gas prices will improve."
Brad Biers, the Davis campaign manager commented, "Congressman Walz ran the most expensive Congressional campaign this past quarter in the state by spending over a quarter of a million dollars. His voting record on spending, which is among the worst in Congress, appears to mirror his campaign finances. His report also shows that his campaign continues to be funded by special interest PAC's from outside the state of Minnesota."
Brian Davis is the endorsed Republican candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives in Minnesota's First Congressional District. He and his wife, Lori, live in Rochester with their four children.
