THE BANKS COUNTY NEWS
WEDNESDAY, JULY 9, 2008
District attorney campaign contributions continued from page 6A
qualifying fee. Smith had spent $20,700
to date, mostly to a Savannah based
political consulting firm.
Incumbent DA Rick Bridgeman report
ed only $2,100 in donations and expenses
of $9,900.
The campaign disclosure reports do
not include funds received or expended
after June 30, which means expenses in
the two-week period prior to the July
15 primary aren't included. That period
typically sees the heaviest expenses as
candidates make a final push to the elec
tion with increased advertising.
The following is a breakdown of the
donations and expenses for each DA
candidate:
