[Verbatim Release] JACKSON, MS - Governor Haley Barbour today filed a campaign finance report showing he raised more than $3.4 million in the first four months of 2007 and had more than $6.1 million cash on hand as of April 30.

The report, filed with the Secretary of State’s office, combined with previous records show that Barbour for Governor has raised nearly $7.69 million since 2004.

“I am grateful for the broad support I have received - contributions small and large - from thousands of donors,” Governor Barbour said.  According to the campaign finance report Barbour had over 2,500 individual donors between January and April 2007.

Governor Barbour formally filed for re-election in February and has said he plans to officially kick off his reelection campaign this summer.

It’s worth noting that $3.4 million divided by 2500 contributors is $1,360 per contributor, meaning there are certainly either some very large donors in there...or very few $10 checks from Grandmas on Medicaid.  wink
