US Senate campaign of border vigilante Chris Simcox is BROKE, debts piling up fast as contributions slow to a trickle

Former Minuteman Civil Defense Corps president turned United States Senate candidate, Chris Simcox of Arizona, just filed his year-end campaign finance report with the Federal Elections Commission.

Chris Simcox is in serious financial trouble.

As of January 28, 2010, the Simcox for Senate campaign committee has only $2,684.65 cash-on-hand.

JD Hayworth’s former campaign committee spent more than that on frou-frou steak dinners.

The most recent FEC filing shows that Simcox has an obvious inability to raise money.

From October 1 – December 31, 2009, the Simcox for Senate campaign was only able to raise a net amount of $28,654.75; but, much of that total came from outside of Arizona.

Simcox’s principle campaign committee now lists over $168,000 in debts, nearly a 50% increase in red ink from the $114,000 in debts listed on his last quarterly filing, through September 30, 2009.

Don’t look for Simcox to bow out gracefully any time soon.

He’s been shunned by most Minuteman and Border Patriot affiliates,  due to accusations of fiscal mismanagement and his penchant for good old-fashioned crazy talk.

One can’t imagine just what kind of gainful employment Simcox might try now, since this Senate race isn’t working out quite the way he’d planned.

Simcox the spoiler might be gone, but Simcox the dreamer is not.
