Congressional candidates increase self-financing

Three of New Mexico’s congressional candidates have upped the ante again in recent days by increasing their own self-financing.

In the 2nd Congressional District Republican primary, Aubrey Dunn Jr. reported on Friday that he has loaned another $85,000 to his campaign, according to Federal Election Commission records. That brings the total he’s loaned his campaign to $537,435.17.

In the 3rd Congressional District Democratic primary, Ben R. Luján reported on Thursday loaning his campaign another $150,000, according to FEC records. That brings his total self-financing to $200,000. And Don Wiviott reported on Tuesday loaning his campaign another $250,000, according to FEC records, bringing his total self-financing to 1,340,000.
