McWherter and Herron Tied

The McWherter campaign is releasing their numbers, which show an almost identical amount to Sen. Roy Herron. In the 47 days since announcing they raised $650K and spend about $30K.

“I’m excited about the incredible outpouring of individual support and friendship I’ve received from Democrats all across our great state,” said McWherter. “Folks everywhere are stepping up to help get our campaign off the ground, and are firmly committed to doing whatever it takes to ensure that we elect a sensible leader with the skills needed to tackle our extraordinary economic challenges.”

They'd likely point out that all theirs is new money, while that has yet to be seen with Sen. Herron.

Update:

McMillan has released her numbers to the Nashville Post and shows a smaller sum of $300K being raised over the past 6 months, with $175K cash on hand.

Based on the initial reports, it looks like McWherter has the big bucks in his campaign coffers...his average donation was around $1,700. McMillan and Herron had more low dollar (relatively speaking) donations with an average around $400 and $330 respectively.

Still yet to come will be Ward Cammack's fundraising totals, and an indication of how much money he has been willing to personally spend, or whether he's been able to get some of his corporate buddies to pony up.

Correction, Ward released his numbers to the tune of about $200K.
