Cornyn's Got The Benjamins

The re-election bid of US Senator John Cornyn, R-Texas, won't be cash-strapped. His first quarter fundraising is at $2.2 million, and $1.6 million of it came since the March 4th primary which decided his Democratic opponent (State Rep. Rick Noriega, D-Houston).

Individual donors? 7,121

Average donation this cycle? About $309.

Cash-on-hand? $8.7 million

"We're grateful to the thousands of Texans who are coming forward and showing support for Sen. Cornyn and his positive message for Texas," campaign Manager Rob Jesmer said.
