Aftab Pureval continued his fundraising dominance over David Mann in Cincinnati's mayoral race during the past two months, raking in more than six times as much money in campaign contributions.
Campaign finance reports for May and June, which were filed Friday, show Pureval raised $218,881 to Mann's $33,570.
Those totals are similar to the candidates' previous finance reports, which covered donations from January through April. In those reports, Pureval topped Mann $231,000 to $56,000.
Pureval also is spending significantly more. In the past two months, Pureval outspent Mann $127,000 to $20,000, with almost half devoted to salary for his campaign staff.
Pureval reported a total of 641 donors, 20% of which gave the maximum contribution of $1,100 for individuals or $2,700 for political action committees. Mann reported 99 donors, 16% of which gave the maximum contribution.
