Mulligan's Fund Raising Efforts

In the last two days we took a look at the stellar fund raising effort of City Councilman Festersen and the mediocre one of Councilman Gernandt.   Today we thought we'd look at the effort of neophyte liberal appointed councilman Tom Mulligan.  

Actually, Mulligan had a pretty good year given he started it with zero dollars in his campaign fund.   He finished the year with $38,600 on hand, having spent about $6058 in expenses.  

Most of his funds came from those who sponsored an October event at the Champions Club (invitation below).  Names on that invite and on his contributors' list that catch our eye are Robert Bates ($1000), Dennis Hogan ($2724), Dick Holland ($1000), Donald Klein ($300), Walter Scott ($500), Michael Yanney ($2682) and Jim Young ($1000).   Lots of Democrats. 

From businesses, Mulligan collected most of his donations from those who will likely need his vote in the future.  They include Big Red Keno ($1000), Burlington Capitol Group ($1000), Cox Communications ($2000), Fullencamp law firm ($400), Kutak Rock ($500), Union Pacific ($500) and the Metro Omaha Builders Association ($2500).

Mulligan will need every dollar he can extort from donors in the coming year as he prepares for 2013.   He's told folks that he is a shu-in and that he is so popular (in his own mind) that he could run for mayor.    Frankly, given his liberal orientation he will be hard pressed to successfully get re-elected in former Councilman Sigerson's conservative Republican district given his RINO (Republican in name only) orientation.    And, we know that he will be opposed by real Republicans.
