The quarterly campaign finance reports are due in at the Missouri Ethics Commission. State Auditor Nicole Galloway (D) has raised a significant amount towards her 2018 reelection campaign:

Some of the contributions:

13. TOTAL MONETARY CONTRIBUTIONS RECEIVED FROM PERSONS GIVING $100 OR LESS $10,401.00

…and a number of contributions from individuals, organized labor, financial professionals, and Democratic office holders.

The expenditures mostly consist of fundraising expenses, data, and setting up a web site.

It’s a good start.

Yesterday at the Missouri Ethics Commission:

[emphasis added]

Does this have anything to do with the August 8th special election in the 50th Legislative District? After all, it is the HRCC’s money.
