\"\"<\/a>Democratic Second Congressional District candidate Harry Teague<\/a> raised just over $170,000 during the first three months of 2008, including a $9,572 loan he gave his own campaign. <\/p>\n

<\/o:p><\/p>\n

Teague raised $157,847 from individuals and $3,000 from political action committees, according to the report<\/a> he filed today with the Federal Election Commission<\/a>. Along with the loan he gave his campaign, that brought his total fundraising for the quarter to $170,420.<\/p>\n

<\/o:p><\/p>\n

Teague spent $196,290 during the first quarter of 2008, leaving him with $336,864 on hand at the start of April. Teague raised $408,610 during the last three months of 2007, which included a $200,000 loan he gave his own campaign.<\/p>\n

<\/o:p><\/p>\n

Teague\u2019s only opponent in the Democratic primary, Bill McCamley<\/a>, has not yet filed his report with the FEC, but it\u2019s due by the end of the day. McCamley did announce last week that he raised $55,000 in the last two weeks of March after beating Teague at the preprimary nominating convention on March 15.<\/p>\n

<\/o:p><\/p>\n

Teague has now loaned his campaign a total of $209,572.<\/p>\n

Update, 5 p.m.<\/p>\n

<\/o:p><\/p>\n

In a news release, Teague said no other Democratic candidate in CD2 has raised as much money for a primary as he has in this race.<\/p>\n

<\/o:p><\/p>\n

\u201cI am honored to have received the financial support of so many New Mexicans,\u201d Teague said. \u201cOur campaign fights for working families, and I know that with the continued support of so many Southern New Mexicans, I will go to Washington<\/st1:place><\/st1:State> and begin to deliver real results for our families.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/o:p><\/p>\n

The release stated that more than 90 percent of Teague\u2019s donations came from individual New Mexicans. The campaign raised almost $90,000 in the two weeks following the preprimary nominating convention on March 15.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
