As April quickly comes to a close, state auditor candidate Tom Schweich (R) managed to pull in another $80,000 in large contributions during the month.
As we reported earlier this month, Schweich currently has a significant fundraising lead over his Republican primary opponent, House Budget Chairman Allen Icet (R). But it looks like Schweich has no plans of slowing his fundraising pace.
According to reports filed with the Missouri Ethics Commission on contributions over $5,000, Schweich received 8 separate contributions of $10,000 each this month.
Contributors include Anheuser-Busch, C Hager & Sons Hinge Manufacturing in St. Louis, Hunter Engineering Company in Bridgeton, John Mahaffey of Springfield, Access Health Solutions in Sunrise, FL, Maritz, Inc. in Fenton, Mark Burkhart of St. Louis, and Don Musick, III of St. Louis.
During the same time period Icet received one contribution greater than $5,000, from Anheuser-Busch.
Incumbent State Auditor Susan Montee (D) has not reported any contributions over $5,000 so far this month.
