Pepper: Show me the money -- NOW
David Pepper wants to raise $25,000 before the next deadline for filing campaign finance reports.
Pepper, the Democratic challenger to incumbent Republican Hamilton County Commissioner Phil Heimlich, wants the money to offset some of Heimlich’s big-dollar contributions.
In the last report from late April, Pepper’s campaign had $104,856.09 available. For the same time frame, Heimlich had $392,853.76 available, including one $75,000 payment from Cincinnati financier Carl Lindner.
Here are the finance reports for Pepper and Heimlich from that April deadline.

Pepper asks for the money in an e-mail today noting the deadline for contributions to be shown on the next campaign finance report is Friday. The deadline for candidates to file that report is June 9.

Harry Reid, first caught deeply in the Abramoff scandal, has now been forced to admit he lied about ethics rules consideration for accepting expensive boxing seats from a Nevada agency trying to influence his votes on federal boxing legislation.
Story of Reid's Shame
AP reported Monday that Reid accepted the free seats to three fights from the Nevada Athletic Commission as it was trying to influence his support for legislation to create a federal boxing commission. The state agency feared the legislation would usurp its authority to regulate fights and wanted to convince Reid there was no need for a federal body. Reid continued to support the federal body.
Reid told Las Vegas reporters on Tuesday he would continue to accept such tickets and did not believe he did anything wrong even though a fellow senator, John McCain, R-Ariz., who joined him for one of the fights, decided to reimburse $1,400 for his seat.
Reid said he believed it was appropriate to accept the free tickets because the gifts were from his home state and that McCain had to reimburse because he was from out of state.
Senate ethics rules generally allow senators to take gifts from any state, not just their home state. But they specifically warn against taking normally permissible gifts if the giver may be trying to influence official action.
Manley said Wednesday night that Reid "misspoke when he said the rule applies only to senators who represent the state agency."
In 5 years, John Pepper has contributed about $7,000 to his son's campaigns. In one check, Uncle Carl gave Heimlich $75K.
John Pepper doesn't have to give the money himself- all his & Francie's friends cough the bucks up.
