Looks like they had $1,408.82 in the bank as of 10/30/08. Another report is due soon.
It’s interesting that only one candidate got a direct contribution from We Vote PAC – Robbie Andrews on Sept. 26…and it matches Sam Hall’s $500 contribution on Sept. 24.
Sam Hall, Lumon May, CJ Lewis, Jeffrey Humbles and Robbie Andrews made their contributions out of their campaign accounts. Others wrote small personal checks.
Humbles also lists a $387.00 In-kind contribution for a fish fry. If this was for the WE Vote Fish Fry, then cost of the event was $2091.68.
