Bob Orr raised $227,873 by the end of 2007.
The Republican gubernatorial candidate raised $217,153 from large donors, including Raleigh attorney Gene Boyce, Square One Bank CEO Richard Casey and conservative philanthropist Art Pope.
He raised $3,620 from donors who gave less than $50, $1,500 from the Embarq and Coca-Cola PACs and $600 from the campaigns of state Rep. Carolyn Justus and former Wake County Commissioner Phil Jeffreys, according to a campaign finance report filed last week.
In addition, he loaned his campaign $5,000.
At the same time, Orr spent $225,660 on rent, staff salaries, gas, phone bills and fundraising letters.
That left him with $2,212 in cash on hand.
