Congressional candidate Bob Lord: Campaign photoCongressional candidate Bob Lord: Campaign photo3rd Congressional District candidate Bob Lord reportedly took in over $235,000 in the second quarter of the year, bumping his on hand total to about $706,000, according to his campaign.

"Bob Lord now has raised 10 times more than any other candidate who has ever challenged Rep. John Shadegg in Arizona's 3rd District," read a campaign press release announcing the figures.

Last quarter, Lord outraised incumbent U.S. Rep. John Shadegg (R-Phoenix) by close to $70,000, which took both the Democratic and Republican leadership by surprise. Lord's 1Q total was $220,000, making 2Q his best to date, and the fifth consecutive quarter in which Lord has increased his fundraising totals.

Obviously, though, money is going out the door as well. Despite a record-breaking three month fundraising period, Lord ended the second quarter with only around $70,000 more than he started it with, meaning that $165,000 of Lord's April-through-June take was spent over that same period.

"Not only did our campaign win by 15 points compared to Sydney Hay's four, our campaign garnered 8,000 more actual votes as well as a greater percentage of the total vote than did the Phoenix corporate lobbyist."

-- Zac Petkanas, communications director for Democratic congressional candidate Ann Kirkpatrick, on the prospects of Republican rival Sydney Hay being competitive in the 1st Congressional District race.
