Congresswoman Allyson Schwartz (D-13) continues to raise money at a steady clip, collecting about $464,000 over the last three months and ending the quarter with more than $2.5 million on hand, according to campaign finance data.

The only Republican who has said he may oppose her, Damian Dachowski, has less than $10,000 on hand.

    Nobody wants to jinx a race, but is it too soon to say her seat is looking safe?

    I’m not sure how significant this is–Dachowski has only been in the race a few weeks, and most of Schwartz is presumably PAC money. There’s not much here we didn’t know already.

    I hear that a Philly Firefighter is eyeing that seat from the (R) side. Has anyone heard anything from him?

    It is not about how much money one could raise. It is about character. Allyson Schwartz have made alot of constients angry with Bad votes, hiding from her constients during August when the Town Hall were taking place, and a certain arrogance that she knows better than the people she represents. She is stuck on her own ideology. No compromises. Damian Dachowski is the better choice.
