Graham loaded, Conley strapped for cash

U.S. Senate candidate Bob Conley headed into the final weeks of the election campaign with $5,277 in cash on hand as the Democrat takes on U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham.

A report the Conley campaign filed with the Federal Election Commission last week shows Conley had raised $23,628 for the race through the end of September.

Conley said Sunday he had not seen the third-quarter report.

Graham headed into the final month of his re-election campaign with $3.8 million on hand.

Graham’s campaign said it raised $351,490 and spent $251,284 during the third quarter as the Seneca Republican seeks a second term.
