Posted by David Paterson says he has raised $2.2 million in the last six months for his Democratic campaign for governor, with $3 million left on hand for more spending.
Paterson’s campaign says the governor’s financial disclosure filings, due to the Board of Elections Friday, will show he raised $11.5 million. The spending was mostly on two television commercials the campaign has run for weeks.
The campaign for Democrat Andrew Cuomo, the attorney general, didn’t respond to a request for comment and for its financial data.
Republican candidate Rick Lazio plans to make his data available Friday.
In the July reports, Cuomo had $10.1 million to Paterson’s $5.4 million.
Democrat Eliot Spitzer spent more than $40 million to win the 2006 race
