Vermont Business Magazine Matt Dunne, Democratic candidate for governor, has submitted his latest campaign finance report with the Secretary of State’s office. Dunne said he is the only candidate to voluntarily release a campaign finance disclosure on a monthly basis -- more frequently than is currently required by law -- because he believes that with early voting underway, the public should have information about how his campaign is funded.
“I am proud to be running an aggressively transparent campaign, and that’s also the kind of governor I will be,” said Matt Dunne, Democratic candidate for governor. “With voting already well underway, I’ve made a point to disclose information about how our campaign is funded, because Vermonters deserve to know whether a candidate is running a people-powered campaign, like I am, or whether they’re self-funding or accepting corporate money.”
Today’s campaign finance disclosure reported a total of $819,625.56 raised from 3,062 individual contributors. The campaign has spent $611,441 to date.
Dunne said he has run the most transparent campaign of all gubernatorial candidates this cycle. He has also proposed a comprehensive package of ethics reforms, including ending corporate contributions to candidates running for election.
