Round two of candidate finance reports ? EdNewsColorado

Wide gaps in dollars raised by school board candidates in Denver, Douglas and Jefferson counties appear little changed in a second round of campaign finance reports filed with the Secretary of State?s Office on Friday.

In Denver, at-large candidate Happy Haynes is edging closer to a new fundraising record, reporting a total of $230,037 raised as of Oct. 23 in her quest to fill the citywide seat being vacated by Theresa Pe?a, who is term-limited.

Haynes, a former Denver City Council president and school district administrator, still has one more reporting period for the current election, covering Oct. 24 through Nov. 26. That third and final report, due Dec. 1, could show Haynes surpassing the $240,605 record set by at-large candidate Mary Seawell in 2009.

Friday?s filings cover the past three weeks, from Oct. 7 to Oct. 23, and show the nine candidates for three Denver school board seats raised a combined total of $133,982 during that time. Altogether, the candidates have raised nearly $790,000 so far in their campaigns to govern the city school district.

More than half of that money is coming in for just three candidates ? Haynes, Anne Rowe and Jennifer Draper Carson. Each has raised more than twice the total of her nearest competitor.

For example, among Haynes? four opponents for the at-large seat, the closest in dollars on hand is high school teacher Frank Deserino, with $17,290. Most of that he donated to himself.

Three Denver ?reform? candidates share more big donors

The top fundraiser for the recent three-week reporting cycle was Draper Carson, who is seeking to unseat incumbent Arturo Jimenez to represent District 5 northwest Denver on the board. Draper Carson raised $52,680, bringing her total to $177,440.

Jimenez reported raising an additional $8,595 in the second reporting cycle, for a total of $68,073.

Emily Sirota, a candidate for the District 1 seat representing southeast Denver, raised the second-highest amount in the recent reporting period, with $29,331. That brings her total to $87,293.26.

Her opponent, Rowe, reported raising $20,525 for a cumulative total of $196,845.

Haynes, Draper Carson and Rowe, who have been endorsed by Denver Mayor Michael Hancock and other groups supportive of the reforms of Denver Schools Superintendent Tom Boasberg, share big donors.

In the first filing period, five men combined to give each candidate $82,000. Those contributors are Daniel Ritchie, CEO of the Denver Center for the Performing Arts; Henry Gordon, president of Strata Capital; Kent Thiry, CEO of DaVita Inc.; CU President Bruce Benson; and Scott Reiman of Hexagon Investments.

In the second reporting period, Richard Sapkin of Edgemark Development gave Draper Carson $10,000. He previously had given that amount to Haynes and to Rowe. So six donors have now combined to give each of the three candidates $92,000.

In addition, Michael Fries of Liberty Media gave $20,000 to Draper Carson during the second reporting cycle. He previously had given that amount to Rowe.

Teachers? union still biggest contributor to two DPS candidates

Sirota and Jimenez share the endorsement of the Denver Classroom Teachers Association, and the union?s small donor committee is also their biggest donor.

Sirota received additional DCTA contributions of $14,000 in the second reporting period, bringing her DCTA total to $46,580 ? or more than half of her total financial take. That doesn?t include the $24,860 in non-monetary contributions she?s received from the union, in members canvassing on her behalf.

Other contributors in the second reporting cycle included Montana Gov. Brian Schweitzer, Sirota?s former boss, who donated $250 and headlined a fundraiser for her, and friends and family from outside the state such as Adam McKay, an actor and writer in LA, who?s given $6,000.

Jimenez, who previously received $24,000 from the DCTA and $6,000 from the statewide teachers union, the Colorado Education Association, reported no more financial contributions from teachers? unions in the second reporting period.

He did list $7,400 in non-monetary contributions from the DCTA, in members canvassing for his re-election. That brings his total non-monetary contributions from the DCTA to $15,720.

Jimenez also has received $1,000 from the AFL-CIO and $250 from the Fraternal Order of Police, bringing his total monetary contributions from unions to $31,250. His biggest contributor in the second reporting cycle was Rob Alvarado, CEO of Palo Alto Inc., who gave $3,000.
