Sen. Lindsey Graham has 366,125% more money to spend than Bob Conley in this race.
This is the story that got my attention this Tuesday morning from The Associated Press:
Graham’s Challenger has $983 for Campaign
COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) - Federal campaign finance records show Democrat Bob Conley has $983 for his U.S. Senate race against U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham.
Conley’s report for the quarter ending June 30 was filed a couple of weeks ago. The report shows he finished the primary with a debt of $3,692.
The report Republican Graham filed for the quarter showed he finished the primary with $3.6 million on hand.
Conley’s report shows about three-fourths of the $5,068 he raised during the quarter came from out-of state donors. Most of them lived in California, Indiana, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Texas.

I have never voted for a Democrat except Glen Reese when I lived in Chesnee, But,that is about to change, I will be voting Democrat in the election between Lindsey Graham and Bob Conley. I cannot believe that people in SC voted Lindsey Graham to run in the upcoming election. I asked him (Lindsey Graham) for some help with a problem that I have been having and was completely ignored by him. On the other hand Jim Demint has helped me immensely. I voted for Buddy Witherspoon in the primary and was dumbfounded when Lindsey won due to his willingness to help ILLEGAL ALIENS BUT NOT HIS OWN CONSTITUENTS, therefore, I am going to try my best to forget that I am voting for a Democrat in that Congressional race. I hope that $1000.00 is enough to get Lindsey Graham’s opponent elected. I do not know why the people of SC would voted for a man that won’t help the citizens of SC, but is willing to give your tax dollars to illegal aliens.
