N.H. Dems raise more than N.H GOP
By Brian Lawson, PolitickerNH.com ReporterLost in all the candidate fillings we neglected to mention the FEC filings from the New Hampshire Republican Party (NHGOP) and the New Hampshire Democratic Party (NHDP).
During the month of June the NHDP raised almost nine times more money than the NHGOP. The state Democrats raised $259,959 and spent $228,155; while the NHGOP raised $30,480 and spent $17,906. A part of the NHDP total is transfers from the Democratic National Committee and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committe that total $177,707. The Republicans had a $15,000 transfer from the Republican National Committee.
In addition to raising more money than the Republicans, the Democrats have more money cash-on-hand than the Republicans. The NHDP has $197,216 on hand and the Republicans have $116,628.

Quote of the Day
"Last June we were promised by the Republican National Committee and McCain HQ's that we would be consulted on campaign strategy in New Hampshire. I guess that promise was as empty as the head of the person responsible for creating political strategy in New Hampshire. What can we expect next -- phone jamming calls on election day? Thanks guys."

Typical
Democrats, party of the rich....obtained from outside sources
Status Quo Democrats
Figures the status quo democrats get money from outside sources (Out of State) and also sell a list to others (Data Mining Companies) to raise their tills. Nobody asked those on the list if they wanted their name included to spammers (Telemarketers aka Data Mining Companies) Yet Republicans spend less than Democrats, that in itself should say something of who is better to run our state Government.
Daddy, what are taxes?

In reality the NHDP raised about $82,000 and the NHGOP $15,000. After subtracting the amounts sent from DC.
The NHDP has about $80,000 more in the bank.
This says it is the federal account report. The August state reports will be interesting.
It's the spendin, not the raisin
More important than how much was raised, is how much was spent. The Dems spent $228 K on organization and voter contact, the GOP only $30 K. Last month the numbers were D's $135,200; R's $14,900.
The Republican State Committee is getting buried by the Dems. The Dems just keep raisin N spendin. It's going th make the difference on election day.
Chairman Fungus should be chared with dereliction of duty.
Out of the mouths of babes...
By RankandfileGOP; "Dems just keep raisin N spendin" I couldn't have said it better myself.
Even you see what the Dems have done since 2006 in Concord.
Now if we could just get some Republicans up there with mop and pails to clean up the mess, Concord may look better in 2009 and 2010.
