Page Outraises Kinder


Democratic candidate for Lieutenant Governor Sam Page is boasting that he's outraised incumbent Lieutenant Governor Peter Kinder during the 2nd quarter.

In a release, Page announced raising $271,191 during the last three months.

Earlier Tuesday, Kinder reported raising $258,346 during the same period.

Page said he gained 406 new individual contributors this quarter. "Our 2,234 contributors are the strength of our campaign," Page said.

"The broad-based support I've received has helped me out-raise the incumbent -- something not considered an easy feat. The addition of 406 contributors shows our campaign continues its momentum," Page added.

Page is reporting $560,440 on hand. Kinder still holds a slight advantage on that front. He has $573,492 on hand to spend.
