Williams Campaign Fundraising Surpasses $750,000
KENTUCKY....
Democratic Governor Steve Beshear has surpassed $3.5 million in campaign fundraising and has most of it stockpiled in the bank for his re-election bid, but Republican rival David Williams made up some ground with a strong end-of-the-year showing. The Kentucky Senate President outraised Beshear during the fourth quarter of 2010, but still trails by a big margin in overall campaign funds. Williams amassed more than $750,000 in campaign funds that mostly came in the final two months of last year, his campaign said Wednesday as candidates filed campaign finance reports with the state.
