Appointed County Council incumbent Rod Demowski goes into the campaign for the August primary and November general election with a big financial advantage over his two opponents.
Through Monday, Dembowski had reported raising $100,098 and raising $18,821 to candidate Naomi Wilson's $2,155 raised and $83 spent. The third candidate, John Fray, had not yet registered with the State Public Disclosure Commission.
The three will be on the non-partisan primary ballot, with the top two vote getters advancing to November.
Because there will be a primary, donors are allowed to give a candidate $900 for the primary and $900 for the general election, something that one contributor already has done for Dembowski and one has done for Wilson. If there were only one or two candidates, there would be no primary, and donors would be limited to a single $900 contribution to a candidate.
