Replacing Atwater: Republican Loeb raises $226k

by Michael C. Bender | July 9th, 2009

nickloebDelray Beach activist Nick Loeb said today he raised $225,955 in his bid to replace state Sen. Jeff Atwater, a North Palm Beach Republican (and sitting Senate president) who is leaving office to run for state chief financial officer.

Loeb is in a GOP primary against state Reps. Carl Domino of Jupiter and Ellyn Bogdanoff of Fort Lauderdale. State campaign finance reports are due on Friday.

Loeb also said he refunded a total of $2,500 to six people who requested their money when he changed races. Loeb initially announced his candidacy for House District 87 to replace term-limited Rep. Adam Hasner, but changed his mind when Atwater announced he would be vacating seat.
