Judd Legum raised more money for the District 30 House race and got fewer votes than any candidate. Legum raised over 133k and received 18,385 votes which put him in sixth or last place. Seth Howard, who raised a paltry $21,296 when compared with Legum, managed to get 600 more votes for fifth place. Incumbent Virginia Clagett who placed fourth and lost her seat raised just under $24k. Ron George came in first and McMillan came in third as each raised over $120k. House Speaker Mike Busch who came in a close second has had a substantial campaign account for many years.
Legum repeatedly claimed he would take no PAC money while Howard, who made no such claims, also reported receiving no money from PACS or other candidates or political organizations. As I have shown elsewhere in other articles, Legum's claim was not always fully credible. However, McMillan's report showed only 2% from PAC's and 2% from non-MD political organizations.
The above does not include money raised though the Team 30 slate which included Senator John Astle, Busch, Clagett and Legum.
