Thompson edges Giuliani in NC money

Fred Thompson is neck-and-neck with Rudy Giuliani in the race for money from North Carolina.

Thompson's campaign finance report for the third quarter shows that he has raised just over $106,000 from North Carolina contributors for his campaign for the Republican presidential nomination. Giuliani raised just over $96,000 for the same period.

But Thompson's totals come with an asterisk - his report includes money raised in June. Giuliani's report only includes money raised in July, August and September.

Thompson's report lacks the star power of Giuliani's report, which included contributions from some NASCAR notables.
