The Baker for Governor and Tisei for Lieutenant Governor campaigns announced today that they raised a combined $388,348.54 in the month of January and outraised their opponents by a factor of three.
According to a Baker/Tisei campaign press release, Charlie Baker raised $342,592.04 from 1,106 donors last month while Richard Tisei brought in $45,756.50 from 198 donors.
The release claims that Baker and Tisei’s fundraising “far surpassed that of their opponents, both as individual candidates and as tickets.” According to OCPF records (based on deposit receipts), Baker-Tisei outraised Patrick-Murray ($136,818 combined) by 3 to 1, and outraised Cahill-Loscocco ($112,368 combined) by 3 1/2 to 1.
“Every day, more people are joining the Baker-Tisei team because they know Charlie and Richard will end the circus on Beacon Hill and bring real leadership and real reform to state government,” said campaign manager Lenny Alcivar. “Charlie and Richard’s message is resonating because they share the priorities of the people of Massachusetts. They will lower taxes, cut spending and bring back jobs in order to get Massachusetts back on the right track.”
This is a really great informational website. I love it! Thank you for providing such a great service to the voters in MA. It helps us to stay informed, which is something the Boston Globe nor the Herald do very well anymore. And it isn’t biased. I love that.
BTW, it is nice that Baker received money, but he is increasingly annoying already. I hope he stopped those pop-up ads on Boston.com
I like him, but geesh.
what people don’t realize is that Charlie Baker is NOT fiscally responsible with his money, seeing that he spend almost a million of his dollars last year (IN A FEW MONTHS) on really nothing. Tim Cahill has the most money by far in his bank account (far surpassing both Baker and Deval). We need someone fiscally responsible and someone who is going to help the middle class.
