MS-01: 2Q fundraising numbers out (updated)

Thanks to the guys at Swing State Project, who do a workmanlike job of compiling campaign finance reports into neat, easy-to-read charts, we have some good data to report. Last night at midnight was the FEC deadline to report the 2Q fundraising totals by congressional candidates. Here is what we have.

Travis Childers raised $1,032,000 from April 24 to June 30. His opponent Greg Davis raised $712,000 during the same period. The special election runoff was April 23, therefore the late start for the quarter. Childers has $161,000 Cash-on-Hand compared to $54,000 for Davis.

James at Swing State Project added this juicy detail after the original post.

Greg Davis' heart just isn't in it anymore. Despite raising over $700K from April 24 through June 30th, the Nathan Lane lookalike took in under $10,000 in the month of June.
