Inside the Council Campaign War Chests
Fri., Dec. 11, 2015
The historic 10-1 City Council election saw unprecedented levels of campaign cash flow through candidate coffers – most notably Mayor Steve Adler surpassing the $1 million mark. Adler and some candidates, not strictly bound by self-loan rules, were also able to pull hefty sums from their own pockets to their respective campaigns. Here's a snapshot of how much candidates raised from individual donors giving no more than $350 each and how much money they loaned themselves.
