Arizona: Quayle Tops Half-Million for House Race [View All]

[ccharles000]

Attorney and investor Ben Quayle (R) may not have the experience in elected office that many of his GOP rivals for Arizona's 3rd district seat do, but he's blowing them out of the water in fundraising.

Quayle, son of former Vice President Dan Quayle, raised $550,000 since launching his campaign in mid-February, no doubt assisted by his family network.

That sum is likely to make him one of the top funded non-incumbent House candidates in the country for the first quarter.

And it places him well ahead financially of the rest of the GOP pack for retiring Republican Rep. John Shadegg's seat.
