Chris Cox Campaign Out-Raises Both Republican Opponents

Smithtown, NY —  The latest FEC Pre-Primary filings are proof positive that the negative campaigns directed against Chris Cox, the real conservative Republican in the NY-1 House race, have failed to stop his growing momentum with less than two weeks to Primary Day.

The Chris Cox campaign raised $103,136 for the filing period, nearly double that of his closest competitor, Randolph Altschuler.

On the heels of a resounding legal victory paving the way for Chris Cox to gain the Conservative Party line via a grass-roots Opportunity to Ballot primary, the Federal Election Commission (FEC) filings demonstrate that Team Cox is gaining not just volunteers and committed voters, but their hard-earned financial support.

“We definitely have the resources to wage a winning fight for both the Republican and Conservative nominations,” declared Cox.

 “We will win this race on the issues,” Cox continued.  “Victory this year has never been about matching, dollar-for-dollar, the special interest money received by the liberal incumbent, nor my opponent’s fortune that was amassed by sending American jobs overseas.  Nevertheless, I am gratified by all the contributions, small and large, that continue to pour into our campaign by voters seeking a conservative leader they can trust.” 

Republicans, Conservatives, and patriots in the Tea Party movement, including the Suffolk County 9-12 Project and the Conservative Society for Action, are uniting to ensure the defeat of liberal incumbent Rep. Timothy Bishop, a man out of step with the overburdened taxpayers of Long Island.

“I will be an Ambassador for job creation on Long Island and Suffolk County’s toughest defender in our Nation’s capital,” said Cox.
