Running against write-in, Jay Fant spends on TV shoot
Rep. Jay Fant

Jay Fant

Like his fellow Jacksonville Republican Clay Yarborough in House District 12, Rep. Jay Fant of House District 15 faces no serious competition in November.

His opponent is a write-in.

Despite not having a real opponent, odds are good those on Jacksonville’s Westside will see a Fant spot on television before Election Day.

Fant spent $9,750 with Front Line Strategies for TV spot production on Sept. 23.

Despite this spend, Fant has just over $69,000 cash-on-hand as of Sept. 30.

In the last two-week fundraising period reported (between Sept. 17-30), Fant only raised $1,000, but it’s from an interesting donor: a Wichita, Kansas business concern called Koch Industries.
