GRAND JUNCTION — Incumbent Mesa County Commissioner Craig Meis has accrued more money than any other 2008 candidate for county commissioner, according to campaign finance reports due Tuesday to the Secretary of State’s office.
Meis, who serves District 1 on the west side of the county, has taken in $19,926 in monetary contributions since Oct. 28. He started his campaign with $4,012 and has spent $1,425.49, leaving him with $22,512.51 in cash on hand.
Dan Robinson, the Democrat who will face Meis on the Nov. 4 general election ballot, has $9,440.76 in cash on hand. He took in $15,990 in contributions between Oct. 28 and July 17, and spent $6,549.24.
The only contended race on the Aug. 12 primary ballot is between District 3 Mesa County Commissioner Janet Rowland and her Republican opponent Dave Kearsley. Kearsley has more money in cash on hand — $3,274.38 to Rowland’s $2,321.76 — but Rowland had 139 contributors. Kearsley had 18 donors between Oct. 28 and July 17.
Kearsley also beat Rowland in overall contribution amounts. Kearsley has collected $24,555.64 since October. Rowland, who had $3,778 in her campaign account before this filing period, has taken in $12,725 in monetary contributions since Oct. 28.
Dickie Lewis, the Democratic challenger to either Kearsley or Rowland in November, has $3,150.07 in cash on hand. He has spent $689.93 and taken in $3,840 from 25 donors. More than half of the money donated to Lewis’ campaign came from a $2,000 check from the Mesa County Democratic Central Committee.
The committee also gave Robinson $2,000. Robinson’s donor list also included Grand Junction City Councilwoman Teresa Coons, Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commissioner Rich Alward and Mesa County Democrats Chairwoman Mary Beth Pyle.
Rowland and Meis took in money from Mesa State College trustee and Alpine Bank President Norm Franke, former county commissioner Tillie Bishop, Grand Junction City Councilwoman Linda Romer Todd and former state Sen. Ron Teck.
Before ending his campaign for Meis’ seat, Republican Jim Doody, a Grand Junction City Council member, collected $3,036.33 for his campaign.
