Fundraising update

The Charlie Baker and Richard Tisei campaigns asserted today asserted that they out fund-raised both the Patrick-Murray and Cahill-Loscocco teams. Baker-Tisei reportedly raised over $560K in February and $950K in the first two months of 2010. Patrick has deposited a bit over $260K through February and Murray deposited $58K in January.

Cash on hand reports are:
Baker - $1,620K (end of January)
Tisei - $402K (end of January)

Patrick - $754K (end of February) (end of February, 2006 -- $716K)
Murray - $238K (end of January) (end of January, 2006 -- $224K)

The Republican ticket is out fund-raising the Democratic incumbent and the Democratic ticket's fund-raising is down marginally from the 2006 campaign (in a significantly poorer economy). It seems clear that there is a strong push for the Republicans, and Scott Brown probably deserves the credit for getting donors in the habit of giving to GOP candidates.
