A brief look at federal election records reveals the financial status of both candidates in Colorado’s 6th congressional district.
According to the reports, at the end of June Republican Tom Tancredo had $550,987 cash on hand, whereas his contender, Democrat Bill Winter, reported $164,951.
Tancredo has also spent a total of $669,100; and Winter has spent $177,591.
Winter’s committee has also reported a small debt of $3,954, but this does not mean the campaign itself is in debt, as the figures up above contest.
