Adams Leads Bruning In Fund-raising

Challenger Steve Adams has raised $7,030 and spent $3,879 to date in his attempt to unseat Coeur d’Alene City Councilman John Bruning, according to his 7-day, pre-election financial disclosure statement. Bruning has raised $4822 and spent $69 to date. Significant contributions for Adams during the last disclosure period include $500 from Kathleen Sims and James Doty — and $500 from Starr Kelso. Sims’ $500 apparently doesn’t include the $908 donated by her company, Coeur d’Alene Honda. You can see Adams’ statement here. Major contributions for Bruning include: $1000 from the Washington State Council of county and City Employees PAC and $400 from Jack Riggs. You can see Bruning’s statement here. None of the other three candidates in the five-way race — Annastasia Somontes, Pat “Mitch” Mitchell, or Derec Aujay have turned in their statements yet.
