CA Governor $100M race could be most expensive ever
From a Contra Costa Times story:
With Davis on track to spend more than $70 million on his re-election campaign, and Simon set to clear $30 million, California's 2002 race for governor will go down in history as one of the most expensive elections in U.S. history, Jeffe said.
"That is astonishing," Jeffe said. "We're over $100 million. That is a record for California and it may be the all-time (national) record."
