Oct 17, 2018 9:01 am
David Lombardo reports in the Albany Times Union that Democrat Antonio Delgado raised far more money for his campaign in the past three months than his Republican opponent, incumbent John Faso. Delgado, from Rhinebeck, raised in $3.35 million in contributions, while Faso, from Kinderhook, brought in $977,617. According to federal election filings, Delgado has $1.75 million to spend before election day, and Faso has $1.4 million. Chris Martin, the regional press secretary for the National Republican Campaign Committee, admitted that Democrats "are energized," but said, "At the end of the day, these are Republican districts." But a Democratic strategist disagreed. "A lot of people talk about a blue wave ... but there has also been a green wave," said Evan Stavisky. "It's been absolutely a story of the election cycle." For Faso, 66.7 percent of his donations came from individuals, rather than political action committees. Delgado raised 94.2 percent from individuals. Read the full story in the Albany Times Union.
