HARRISBURG -
After quietly soliciting cash and
support, the five Democrats and three Republicans vying to succeed
Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell next year will have to publicly disclose their fundraising progress through the end of 2009.
Those Feb. 1 reports are the first in a series that campaign committees must file throughout the year. They will provide an early gauge of the candidates' strength and a glimpse at the individuals and groups who are financing them.
Next year features hot races for governor and U.S. Senate along with campaigns for all of the state's 19 seats in the U.S. House of Representatives and most seats in the Legislature.
The candidates for governor have different ideas about how to create jobs, improve education, make taxes fairer and reduce wasteful spending. But all are watching the bottom line and understand that the recession and competition from other campaigns for the same contributor's dollars may limit what they can raise.
