Fundraising totals are being posted on the Maine Ethics Commission site as we speak. I have included what information I have currently below – but it should be noted that I have only included the privately financed candidates in this list, as those who are seeking Clean Election money will all be entitled to the same amount, and I have no reason to believe any of them will fail to obtain the requisite number of donations and money.
This post will be updated with the totals as soon as they are posted (they are inputting them one at a time, so some are up, some are not – but they all will be at some point today, and we will keep you up on all of them:
