This is my part 4 of a 7 part series on campaign finance reports for elected officials in Howard County. This post looks at Maryland State Senators from Districts 9 (Katie Hester), 12 (Clarence Lam) and 13 (Guy Guzzone).
I am going to look at something a little different in my analysis for this post. I will still give you the summary numbers…but I want to focus on the “Other” kind of money these elected officials get…specifically the amount of PAC money these elected officials receive after getting elected. Trust me…that is the story of these financial filings (at least it was the thing that stood out to me).
Here is the summary data:
Here is the PAC money raised by the Maryland State Senators noted in this article:

###
So a quick summary:
- Katie Hester pulled in $12,600
- Clarence Lam pulled in $9,750
- Guy Guzzone pulled in $39,300
So in total: $61,650 in MD PAC and Non-Federal Out-of-State Committees for these elected officials. Again…this is the thing that stood out when I glanced over these report.
Here is a link to view all three reports: CLICK HERE.
