Following the Money: Springfield Democrats

Here's what Springfield Democrats (many of them uncontested in the August primary) did in the third quarter:

Christopher Brown (134th in southwest Greene County): raised $325, $225 of his own money and $100 from those who gave less than that. He's spent $270 at Republic Printing for voter cards.

Nancy Hagan (135th in south Springfield): raised $5,400 this quarter from generous donors who gave $200 or more as well as PACs like the Missouri NEA and some trade unions. She's dropped some serious coin too: $3,646.75 from April-June on door hangers, t-shirts, "design and logos," and postage.

James Owen (136th in central Springfield): He'll be challenging the winner of the B.J. Marsh/Bob Vanaman primary. He raised $4,743 April-June. Most of his contributions were $100 or more. He's raised $13,069 for the election so far. But spent half of it in the last three months: $7,142 including a computer, brochures, a campaign manager, and catering expenses.

Robert Brantley, Charlie Norr and Rich Napieralski (137th for Mark Wright's seat): Napieralski has nothing on record with the Ethics Commission. Norr's filings were not yet scanned as of this writing. Brantley reports he didn't do anthing to collect or spend more than $500.

Sara Lampe (138th): Ethics commission has not yet scanned her filings as of this writing.

Jamie Daniel Schoolcraft and Arthur Hodge Sr. (139th): Hodge reports little or no activity. Schoolcraft tells me his report has yet to be posted by the Ethics commission.

Tonya Cunningham (140th): She'll face Bob Dixon in November. She started the quarter with nothing. As of July 1, she has $460.82 on hand, but that doesn't reflect a busy quarter of fundraising. She collected $4,922.41 including $1,000 from the state party. She spent $3,179.18, mostly on signs.
