Little late the SacBee reported this last week and it was $513,000.

Seeing how Bera outspent Lungren by close to $1 million last election and still lost by almost 8% it doesn't look good for the Doctor. His donors are drying up and he is going to be forced to bend a knee to queen Nancy to help fund his campaign.

Question is does Gary Davis help Bera or does he help Lungrn so that he can make another run at the seat in 2-years. No secret that Lungren's campaign consultant Rob Stutzman recently held an event for Davis at his home. That can't mean good news for Bera.
