There may be little money to follow. Are all the candidates opting for public funding under the "Clean Elections" program?
So far, there are 10 people in 6 of 9 districts who have declared intent to use the comprehensive public funding:
One candidate in each of Districts 2, 7, 8, and 9.
Two candidates in District 4.
Four candidates in District 6.
Zero candidates in Districts 1, 3, and 5.
