Kamala Harris announced today that she raised $1.2 million in the first half of 2009 in her race for attorney general.The San Francisco district attorney is running in a crowded field that includes Torrance Assemblyman Ted Lieu. After the last filing deadline six months ago, Lieu boasted that he had topped the field in cash-on-hand.
At that point, Harris had just gotten started and had just $117,000 in her account, compared to $350,000 for Lieu. Also running for the Democratic nomination are Assemblymen Pedro Nava and Alberto Torrico, former Assemblyman Joe Canciamilla, Facebook executive Chris Kelly, and former Los Angeles City Attorney Rocky Delgadillo.
No word from Lieu or the others yet on their January-to-June totals, but the bar has been set.
