FL GOV candidate Alex Sink (D) narrowly outraised GOP rival Bill McCollum in the second Q, $1.28M to $1.05M (his total includes in-kind contributions), according to both campaigns.

Sink, the state CFO, has so far raised $2.4M for her '10 camp. Sink ended the Q with $2.1M+ in CoH.

Both Sink and McCollum, the state AG, announced their candidacies midway through the filing period. Sink, however, rolled over some money from her CFO campaign coffers.

The McCollum camp's total take for the period is $1.037,154.56 with an additional $22,123.49 of in-kind contributions.

Per her camp, Sink received support from 3,402 individuals who gave an average of $243. Sink took in 1,310 online donations for a total of $209K. Also, 92% of contributors were from FLians.
