El-Amin virtually tied with Boykins and Gambaro in fundraising, still trails Smith

By Antonio D. French

Filed Thursday, January 19 at 5:35 AM

State Rep. Yaphett El-Amin raised $31,685 during the last three months of 2005. Add that to the roughly $5,000 she raised during the previous quarter and the $11,000 in loans to her campaign, she now has just over $43,000 in the bank.

El-Amin is seeking the Democratic nomination to replace term-limited Pat Dougherty in the state senate. Her other opponents are fellow northsider State Rep. Amber Boykins, former state rep and St. Louis City election official Derio Gambaro, and former Congressional candidate Jeff Smith.

According to campaign finance reports published this week, Boykins had $44,543.35 on hand at the end of December. Gambaro had $40,027.05. And Jeff Smith claimed to lead all with more than $100,000 in the bank, although that could not be verified yet because his campaign's reports have not yet been published on the state's website.
