MoveOn Announces $600K Raised For Coakley

MoveOn and its members have been pitching in to help Martha Coakley in the Massachusetts Senate race, with the group announcing that they have so far raised $600,000 for her campaign.

This follows a money-bomb fundraiser by Republican candidate Scott Brown earlier this week, which brought in $1.3 million.

Democrats have been working to make up the difference. In addition to this $600,000 batch of contributions to Coakley's campaign, the fundraising letter from Ted Kennedy's widow Vicki Kennedy brought in over half a million dollars. There has also been significant spending from the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, the League of Conservation Voters, and SEIU.
