Gosh, pretty darn close–

Garamendi — 26.15%
Harmer — 20.58
DeSaulnier — 17.55
Buchanan — 12.00

I suspect Buchanan increased her spending since the last FEC report and has already topped $1M in spend which, if what I hear is correct, is only a very very very very small portion of her personal wealth.

How much of that $850k has Joan actually spent? Dumping personal money into a campaign account in order to appear competitive and then not spending it is a common ploy.

I would love to see Buchanan have someone run against her for the Democratic ticket.
