Brownback Closes Solid
Third Quarter, Carries No Campaign Debt
Eligible for at least $2.1 million
in FEC matching funds
DES MOINES – The Brownback for President campaign, which carries no debt, raised $925,745.22 in the third quarter of 2007 and is eligible for at least $2.1 million in federal matching funds. To date the campaign has total receipts of just over $4.2 million.
"With a crowded field and an entire month during which Senator Brownback
campaigned in Iowa without holding fundraising events, we are pleased with
the level of support for Senator Brownback's message," said John Rankin,
spokesman for Brownback for President. "We have always expected to run
a grassroots campaign and to make the most of limited resources. The option
of over $2 million in federal matching funds would provide additional support
as we move forward."
