At-Large Cash For The Close
It's been rough for these Boston City Council candidates trying to raise money -- which leaves them all straggling into the final stretch run with little to play with. Here's their cash on hand as of Oct. 15, according to the new campaign-finance reports:
John Connolly: appr. $75,000 - $80,000 (he's got some in a CD, so I don't know exactly.)
Stephen Murphy: $49,082
Felix Arroyo: $38,096
Andrew Kenneally: $27,382
Ayanna Pressley: $16,088
Tito Jackson: $7831
Tomas Gonzalez: $6620
Doug Bennett: $4314
Pressley's failure to raise money off of her fourth-place prelim finish surprises me. My big question, however, is will we get some celebrity robocalls down the stretch? Joe K. for Ayanna? Deval for Tito? And will they make a difference -- unlike Romney's death-kiss robocall for Rob Fortes?
