I’m sorry I got distracted with some other things over the last few weeks, but I did not want to neglect the Alabama House races and the financial reports that were filed at the end of January.  So, let’s take a look:

Once again I have sorted the list by cash-on-hand, as what they have left to spend in the upcoming race seems most salient.  No surprise that incumbents top the list, and Republicans hold the top six spots, led by Minority Leader Rep. Mike Hubbard.  The Democrats are led by Rep. John Knight and Rep. Richard Lindsey, each with close to $100K on hand.

Susan Pace Hamill showed extremely strong, leading challengers in cash-on-hand and with almost 4 times as much as her nearest competitor for the open 63rd District seat.  John Merrill also showed strong with over $75K on hand in another open seat race.  Friend of TWAY, Joe Hubbard also showed strong, doubling the fundraising total of the sitting Rep. David Grimes and leading him in cash-on-hand by $15K.

What was most surprising to me in these numbers was how little some sitting representatives have in their campaign coffers.  I imagine many of them don’t raise money because they don’t have to, but there certainly seem to be some vulnerable incumbents on the fundraising front, who do not currently have any declared opposition.

    What does it say that the top six candidates with chash on hand are Repubs? Their combined cash on hand appreaches 900K. And, most of these guys are in fairly safe seats. Has anyone added all the dollars on each side and compared? Would be interested to see how those numbes look.
