"The race for the 4th Circuit Court is going to be a seat going to the individual with the most money, as any other elected position in the country."

Many of those occasions happened here, David Gooding, Ray Lake, Kim Daniels and Clay Yarborough were all significanlty outspent by their opponents and still won. 

Mike Hogan was out spent by both Moran and Mullaney and still managed to best them.  Hogan in turn then outspent Alvin Brown and was defeated.
