Up now at the Colorado Secretary of State: for the latest fundraising period ending June 30th, GOP candidate Scott McInnis raised $165,917 to Democrat John Hickenlooper’s $503,190. No press statement from McInnis (not expecting one), Hickenlooper campaign manager Mike Melanson says in their release, “an outpouring of support for John’s success in bringing business sense to government allowed us to have a successful fundraising period. We’ll need every dollar available in order to run a positive campaign focused on creating jobs and growing opportunity in Colorado.”

It appears that much of Hickenlooper’s cash has been socked away in ad buys for the fall, which the campaign counts as “assets” offsetting comparatively little cash on hand.
