Does anyone know the website to see the fundrising totals of the CA Gov. Candiates?

I was wondering since I just heard on a local radio show a top state Republican party member claim that the former Baseball commish has raise over a 1 million bucks and haves the fundrising lead.

List of current candidates, but don't see any contribution reports. I'll try one other place.

Here it is from the secretary of state's web site. No filing for Ueberroth yet.

$1 million in a state the size of California is not even coffee money. Any candidate who cannot spend more than $20 million (and/or is willing to put that kind of money in the hopper from his own pocket) is road kill come the election on 7 October.

Remember the classic comment of Jesse Unruh, legendary Speaker of the California House, "Money is the mother's milk of politics." Chart the dollars and you will know who has a chance. There will be two names on the list, Schwarzenegger and Bustamante.

As for how that money can be used to produce votes, click below.

I read that Ueberroth contributed the $1M from his personal funds to his campaign.
