A $3 Million Problem
2012-04-26 - by
Whoever wakes up May 9 as the Democratic nominee for governor will immediately face an insurmountable obstacle.
Pat McCrory is sitting on $3.1 million, John Franks reports in Dome. That’s precisely $3.1 million more than the Democratic nominee will have that day.
It will be impossible to make up the gap.
Now, in politics the candidate with the most money doesn’t always win. Maybe only nine times out of 10, I would guess.
We see again how Governor Perdue’s late decision not to run – and the candidates’ late start – put Democrats in a hole they may not be able to dig out of.
