Feder Out-Raises Wolf Yet Again
First-time candidate out-raises 26-year incumbent by more than $195,000 in 2006Sterling, VA +óGé¼GÇ£ Wolf+óGé¼Gäós 2nd quarter finance report, released today, reveals that Judy Feder has once again beaten him in the race for financial support. Feder, who announced yesterday that she has raised over $318,000 since April 1, has raised $195,000 more than her opponent this year, exceeding him by $36,000 this quarter.
Feder, a first-time candidate, made headlines during the first corner by out-raising 26-year incumbent Frank Wolf by more than 2 to 1. By again out raising her opponent by a healthy margin, she has narrowed Wolf+óGé¼Gäós cash on hand advantage to less than $175,000. This makes Feder one of the country+óGé¼Gäós most competitive challengers in terms of fundraising.
+óGé¼+ôAmericans have a powerful desire for change,+óGé¼-¥ said Feder, +óGé¼+ôand I have the resources to let Virginians know that they have a choice in November. If they+óGé¼Gäóre happy with the way things are, they can vote for Frank Wolf, who votes with President Bush 90% of the time and has done a lot of big favors for big oil during his 26 years in Washington. But if they think the country+óGé¼Gäós on the wrong track, they can send President Bush and Congress a message by sending me to Congress on November 7, where I will fight for them.+óGé¼-¥
This good news comes for Feder at the end of her week-long campaign kickoff, during which she visited voters around the district to launch a petition drive to declare +óGé¼+ôEnergy Independence.+óGé¼-¥
Dean of Georgetown University+óGé¼Gäós Public Policy Institute, Judy Feder is posing the most serious challenge that 26-year incumbent Congressman Frank Wolf has seen in years. Feder entered the race in January, saying Frank Wolf is no longer fighting for the best interests of 10th District residents after years in Washington, instead going along with billions in giveaways to big oil and failing to stand up to President Bush.
