It may be too early to turn off the lights, but mayoral hopeful Jim Taliaferro’s campaign is almost out of gas.
Taliaferro had campaign funds on hand as of September 27 of only $6956. He has raised $31,415 during this race.
Taliaferro had two max contributions of $2,500. He had one other contribution of $1,000.
Shreveport Republicans are notoriously big on talk but short on funding candidates. Taliaferro, who is the poster child of the Republican hierarchy , is a perfect example.
