Istook Raises Cash, But Lags Far Behind Henry

Congressman Ernest Istook is raising some campaign cash in the home stretch, but he still lags far behind the assets of Governor Brad Henry.

Ethics Commission CR4 reports show Istook has raised $18,000 in late, large donations, while Henry has reported none since July. Through July, Henry had raised $13,638 in late donations, his reports show.

Istook's problem is demonstrated in the cash on hand figures for both campaigns as of August 7th: Henry had $2.47 million, Istook had just $29,000.
