You’re saying that Giuliani ran for the Senate over a 5 year period? Somehow I doubt that, particularly since Moynihan was the incumbent at that time.

The numbers cover the entire election cycle for that senate seat and are listed this way for every seat.

Moynihan announced his retirement in the Fall of 1998, so the amount that Rooty took in and spent certainly makes sense.

No, that is the way they report it.

I'm saying he was in the race for 2000, even though the shunned adulterer pulled out 11 days before being nominated.
