In this post over at BMG, Tim Murray apparently has raised $136,000 in March. That is a huge number and very impressive.
If he spent no money in March, that would leave him with around 375K. Assuming he kept the same burn rate as prior months (let's say 30K), then he'd have 345K.
Assuming Silbert fundraising continues to slow and she raises 30K and burns 20, she'll be in the 395K range.
As expected, a tightening race that will not only come down to who can afford to be on TV, but rather will be determined by who has the best ads.
Ooh, baby, it's heatin' up!

While obviously Andrea Silbert's fundraising is down in February and March, I think there's a very simple explanation why: As a first time candidate, she's had to focus on caucuses and delegates in a way that Tim Murray doesn't have to. She had a huge January and her signficant $ lead has allowed to do the delegate/convention stuff she needs to do to try and get 15% - she didn't come with a bunch of political followers like Murray. I would expect her $ to recover in April and May as her delegate outreach hits stride. She still will have a significant $ lead even with Tim's big month and she's proven to be better at managing expenses than any LG candidate.
