Murkowski is money leader in Senate race; Stock raises $270K

JUNEAU — U.S. Sen. Lisa Murkowski brought in more than $700,000 toward her re-election bid during the first quarter of the year, ending the period with nearly $3.4 million available.

Margaret Stock, who plans to run as an unaffiliated candidate, reported raising $270,000 but her report only covered a portion of the quarter, between Feb. 12 and March 31. Stock announced her intent to run in February.

She had about $230,000 available as of March 31 and about $30,000 in debts for costs including consulting, web development and rent.

Other, lower-profile candidates in the race have reported little or no fundraising so far.
