Wulsin AGAIN outraises Schmidt

The latest campaign finance reports, which cover Oct. 1-18, just came out. And for the second time in a row... Democrat Victoria Wulsin raised more money than Rep. Jean Schmidt.

In a release (e-mailed to reporters at 10:44 p.m. last night!) the Wulsin campaign touted the fundraising gap as "evidence of Schmidt's weak support and Wulsin's momentum."

More from the release: "The fundraising advantage will allow Wulsin to increase her media buy for You Deserve Better, the television advertisement that has knocked Schmidt on her heels and sent her campaign into a minor frenzy."

CLICK HERE to watch that ad.

CLICK HERE and HERE and HERE to read our past blog posts on Schmidt's "minor frenzy" over the ad.

But what Wulsin's release fails to mention, however, is that Wulsin outspent Schmidt nearly 3-1 during those two and a half weeks. That means Wulsin's final amount in the bank, as of Oct. 18, is about $86,000 less than Schmidt's bank account.

And now, here are the breakouts on the 2nd Congressional District race:

Rep. Jean Schmidt (R):
Money Raised 10/1-18: $131,834
Money Spent 10/1-18: $87,962
Money in the bank: $268,229

Victoria Wulsin (D):
Money Raised 10/1-18: $170,885
Money Spent 10/1-18: $256,228
Money in the bank: $182,161

I wonder why it's taking so long for Team Mean's obnoxious internet crew to come on here and blame everyone but themselves for this shortfall.

Here's the thing-- Mean Jean should never have been a candidate for office and Republicans shouldn't have backed her. She might be a very nice country girl who loves her country but she simply is not sophisticated enough to understand how to work inthe political world.
