Candidates in the Massachusetts Senate special election have announced their fundraising totals, in a race that will quickly come down to a December 8 Democratic primary.
⢠State Attorney General Martha Coakley, the current frontrunner in the available polls, has announced that she raised $2.1 million for her campaign in September. The campaign’s press release said that this was double her original goal of $1 million.
⢠Rep. Mike Capuano has raised $300,000. Federal records show he also had $1.2 million on hand in his Congressional account, as of June 30.
⢠Alan Khazei, founder of the City Year community service organization, has quickly brought in $1 million.
⢠Boston Celtics co-owner Stephen Pagliuca has raised $200,000 including $150,000 for the primary. He will probably be able to self-finance with more money if he needs it.
⢠Scott Brown, the Republican candidate, has raised $154,525.
