DEMOCRATS OUTSHINE REPUBLICANS IN STATE SENATE EARLY VOTING
As we look to the primary election day on Thursday (Oct. 4) for state senate District 10, we must thank our four Democratic candidates for their hard work. After early voting ended Saturday, we can feel good about our candidates' results.
First and foremost, Democrats captured most of the votes during early voting. For every vote Republicans won, Democrats won 4 or 5 more in Hamilton and Marion Counties.
Second, our Democratic candidates outraised Republicans in funds for resources. Our Democratic candidates raised $332,073 to the Republican candidates' $93,083. Here's a breakdown of our candidates' fundraising:
Andy Berke ~ $275,529
Ken Jordan ~ $16,501
Lee Whitaker ~ $10,200
John Wolfe ~ $29,843
I encourage every Democrat to work hard this week to get out the vote for their candidate. Take someone to the polls Thursday. And vote.
