DeMint Reports over $2.2 Million in Campaign Account
web
posted April 16, 2009
COLUMBIA – U.S. Senator Jim DeMint’s
campaign announced Wednesday that he has $2.2 million cash-on-hand
after raising nearly $700,000 in the first quarter of 2009 for his
re-election campaign. The campaign’s quarterly financial report
detailing campaign finance data was being filed with the Secretary of
the U.S. Senate and the FEC Wednesday. DeMint also used this occasion
to announce his campaign’s six statewide finance co-chairs.
DeMint named the following finance co-chairmen of his campaign, the
former Ambassador to Canada and former Speaker of the South Carolina
House of Representatives, David Wilkins; leading conservative low
country donor and industrialist, Bill Hewitt; nationally recognized
commercial real estate developer and 2009 honoree of the South Carolina
Business Hall of Fame, Joe Edens; former SC Republican Party Chairman
and Spartanburg financial advisor, Barry Wynn; top upstate GOP
fundraiser and well known philanthropist, John Rainey; and successful
International businessman and respected midlands political fundraiser,
Peter Brown.
Senator DeMint said, “This is certainly a ‘Dream Team’ of Palmetto
State Fundraisers. I am so appreciative of the tremendous
financial support our campaign is already experiencing under their
leadership. I am also thrilled with the level of support we have been
able to generate online.”
Former Ambassador David Wilkins added, “Producing these kinds of
fundraising numbers in this difficult economy is remarkable and a real
testament to the power of Senator DeMint’s fight for common sense
reforms to secure our freedoms. South Carolinians already know he is a
principled man that just doesn’t sit around and talk about trying to
fix our economy. He actually does something about it. I’m excited
to be involved in his reelection campaign.”
Former State Republican Party Chairman Barry Wynn said, "Senator DeMint
fights tirelessly for South Carolina values everyday he's in
Washington, and this impressive amount of donations shows that the
people of South Carolina are eager to fight with him. He's built up
such a strong base of support throughout our state because he's a
proven leader that understands it’s the people that make America great,
not our government."
