He finally ran out of other people’s money.
Disgraced Rep. Jamaal Bowman is begging for cash and painting himself as the victim in the wake of his bruising — and losing June primary fight against Westchester County Executive George Latimer.
The race was the most expensive in House history, and Bowman — who campaigned with surrogates who publicly celebrated Hamas terrorism –whined to donors about American Israel Public Affairs Committee, which spent $14.5 million to help unseat him.
“AIPAC spent more money against us than any other House primary – ever. I was public enemy number one and they spent almost twenty millions dollars to stop us,” the soon-to-be former member of the lefty House ‘squad’ said in a Aug. 14 campaign committee email.
“But that puts us in a bit of a predicament right now. After tallying up the spends, we’re ‘in the red.’ It would be an incredible help to our team if you could help us retire our campaign debt by chipping in a few dollars now,” the note continued.
It’s unclear how deep Team Bowman is in the hole until his next official filing, but his campaign burned through boatloads of cash in its final days — including more than $1.3 million in TV ads buys and digital advertising in June, FEC records show.
Bowman spent more than $5.3 million on the race while Latimer’s campaign dropped more than $5.6 million.

Sounds like current WV governor & now running for the Senate Jim Justice! He and his businesses were notorious for not paying the bills of subcontractors and not paying ( if they didn’t feel like it!) county & state taxes.
The cherry on top is he only served four years (as did Cori Bush) and you need a minimum of six years to qualify for that lucrative lifetime congressional pension.
So what's the problem? Oh, those incoming debts that haven't been filed yet. Jamaal might be owing some unsympathetic guys some vigorish on those...
What he’s complaining about is that he really doesn’t have enough to live off he rest his life.
Yup, Jamaal’s going to have to go back to his day job. I feel sorry for his students.
Democrats, give them money and they blow it and cry for more.
He just needs to ask his buddy Nancy for some stock tips.
Would he understand if I send a penny...attached to a pull-down fire alarm?
January San Francisco stew bum
Could I contribute a cardboard sign? This is proof of the long-held knowledge that dems get into politics because they have no marketable skills?
creative lol
LOL! Sounds like a good idea.
