Mayoral Candidates Show Off Campaign Fund Coffers

Candidates in the five-person race for the Annapolis mayoral seat have released their campaign finance reports, showing the efforts of their fundraising.

The primary for the election is just a few weeks away—Sept. 17.

Two mayoral candidates, incumbent Josh Cohen, and Mike Pantelides, are neck-and-neck in campaign fundraising.

Meanwhile, Frank Bradley signed an affidavit stating that he has raised between $0 and $100 for his campaign, and thus was not required to detail contributions. In an interview with Patch Friday, Bradley said he had done no campaigning.

Bevin Buchheister and her husband Chris used loans to match her $10,000 in campaign contributions.

Review all the campaign finance forms online at the City of Annapolis website.
