In December,  White reported raising $640,000 in the first 15 days of his campaign. White began the year wih $737,000 on hand.

Previously, White had led all Senate candidates in fundraising. Not all campaigns have reported yet, but expect that trend to continue. The contributions have come from 1400 Texans, White's campaign says.

Hopefully we will have the first fundraising numbers from John Sharp's U.S. Senate campaign later today.

Updated: Via Matt Stiles of the Houston Chronicle, news from the Republican side of the U.S. Senate race: Railroad Commissioner Michael Williams reported raising $181,000. Almost exactly 1/10 of what Bill White raised.
