When we reported that Hubert Snodgrass had launched his Democratic campaign for the House District 19 seat, much of the talk on Twitter was about how his name sounded like something from the 19th century.
His fundraising total for October, were it the 19th century, might turn heads.
His first fundraising report contained $460 in donations, ranging from $5 all the way up to $200.
The Republican ballot, meanwhile, contains three candidates with a bit more fundraising firepower thus far.
Time will tell whether Snodgrass is able to build momentum; as the only Democrat in the race, he should at least have a clear path to the general election.
