Democrat Matt Entenza reported to the Minnesota Campaign Finance Board that he gave his campaign $450,000 for the final weeks of the gubernatorial campaign.
The 24 hour report show that Entenza gave the campaign the funds on July 22nd. This is in addition to the $100,000 investment Entenza gave the campaign in 2009. It's not clear if he's given any funds to the campaign between December 31st and July 22nd. We won't know until the campaign finance reports are released on Tuesday.
Entenza isn't the only candidate to use his personal wealth to fund the campaign. Democrat Mark Dayton is also relying on his funds to pay for the campaign. Both Dayton and Entenza declined to abide by the state spending limits.
