Good half-quarter for Massa
Massa posted strong numbers for the period July 1 — August 20:
Earlier today, Retired Navy Commander and Congressional candidate Eric Massa filed his pre-primary FEC campaign finance report. During this period, which ran from July 1st - August 20th 2008, Massa raised $207,025.46.
The Massa Campaign has a strict policy of not accepting corporate political action committee (PAC) money and has refunded $3,000 in contributions given by Corporate PACs in this filing period. The FEC report shows $210,025.46 for Massa’s total amount raised for period ending August 20, 2008, however the $3,000 refund will appear on the next FEC report. After subtracting the refund, the final amount raised is $207,025.46 this period and $1,403,747.97 total for the 2008 election cycle.
This period is almost exactly half as long as a quarter. So this is roughly the equivalent of 400K for a quarter, which is very strong for this area.
