Jeffrey Stroehmann

In the closing days of the primary campaign, Derek Walker loaned himself $191,000 and Matt Shaner loaned himself $400,000.

While Glenn Thompson's report was not available on the FEC website, it's reported that he raised only $18,000 – not a lot for the chairman of the county Republican Party. Jeffrey Stroehmann refused to discuss his spending when prompted by CentreDaily, but disclosed a $20,000 personal loan to his campaign to the FEC.

What's noteworthy about the spending patterns is the degree to which the top Republican money-raisers relied on self-finance, but ended up splitting the vote.
