PHOENIX — Two Republican gubernatorial hopefuls, trailing in the polls, are spending pretty much all the money they have in hopes of clinching the nomination in the Tuesday primary.
New campaign finance reports show Congressman David Schweikert has burned through the $1.2 million in his war chest. That includes not just about $534,000 in donations but also $572,000 he moved from his prior congressional campaigns and $99,000 from his own pocket.
What that left him on June 30 — the last day the new report covers — is just $42,495 in the bank.
