Cobb Chairman Tim Lee raised $16,225 in the last six months of 2011, and has just over $18,500 in his campaign account, well below his goal of raising $200,000 to $400,000 toward his re-election bid.
Lee’s contributors include several people who have done business with the county, including road construction company C.W. Matthews, which contributed $4,000 between the company and employees and $1,000 from Waste Management. He also received an $18,000 loan from Bank of North Georgia, which previously loaned him $19,200.
Lee’s challengers Bill Byrne had about $14,000 in available cash, according to the finance reports, and retired Marine colonel Mike Boyce has raised $11,250 and has almost $10,000 available to spend.
