Besse's cash


Dan Besse's campaign has raised over $100,000.

The candidate for the Democratic nomination for lieutenant governor said in an e-mail that he had raised a fourth of the money in the month of June.

He noted that many of the donors were in small amounts of $25, $50 or $100.

The Winston-Salem city council member trails behind Sen. Walter Dalton, who announced yesterday that he had raised over $465,000 during the same time period.

Mid-year campaign finance reports are not due until July 27, so comparable numbers for the other major candidates for the Democratic nomination are not available.
