Here’s what I’ve found on the FEC website as of 1 p.m. today. Each figure is rounded to the nearest dollar. All five incumbent congressmen intend to seek reelection in 2010. Here’s how they rank in terms of cash on hand: Braley is tops, followed by Latham, Boswell, Loebsack and King.
Among the challengers who’ve emerged, Republican Jim Gibbons in the third congressional district raised far more than any other. Gibbons, the former ISU wrestling coach, raised exponentially more than the two other GOP competitors in the third district who filed a report with the F.E.C. There are three other candidates in that six-way G.O.P. primary in the third district who have not filed paperwork with the F.E.C. — or, if they have, it’s not posted online right now.
Below are the fundraising totals for each congressman:
First District Congressman Bruce Braley (D-Waterloo)
Raised $173,000
Cash on hand $538,000
Second District Congressman Dave Loebsack (D-Mt Vernon)
