Hazley Hits 3rd District Campaign Trail With EPIC Cash Over Councilman Ellington & Darron Story

Insiders have told us that this is the contest to watch over most other Kansas City council elections.

Why???

Because one of the contenders is so strong that she could be the first African-American mayor of Kansas City, Missouri. 

And so, a few campaign finance deets are in order. 

To start . . . 

DR. MELISSA PATTERSON HAZLEY STARTS HER CAMPAIGN WITH AN IMPRESSIVE CASH HAUL!!!

In about three months here's how much she has earned . . .

30 grand to start . . . From zero. That's pretty good math. 

She finishes with $28,659 on hand.

Meanwhile . . .

Incumbent councilman Brandon Ellington has garnered the wrath of Freedom, Inc. but still holds 20 grand having raised $4,355 this quarter.

Finally . . .

Darron Story hasn't been able to turn his local radio celebrity into donor money despite the endorsement of former Mayor Sly James and the fact that he's an all around nice guy. 

Mr. Story has $3,741 on hand after raising nearly 4 grand this quarter.

This should be an interesting contest which has the potential to "realign" the balance of power in the urban core and reestablish the citywide influence of Freedom, Inc. along with historic East side power brokers. 

Developing . . .
