.@ninaturner has raised $2.2 million since announcing in mid-December, including $1.55 M since Jan. 1.

Cash on hand: Over $1 million

Average contribution is $28.
Turner's main opponent @ShontelMBrown announced a total $500k haul on March 24. In the final week of the month, Brown says her total since announcing her run grew to $680k.

But Brown is more keen to emphasize local proportion of donors, claiming 55% are from northeast Ohio.
Turner says she has 400 donors from Ohio. It's unclear what her total number of donors is. Her total contributions are nearly 78k.

Turner has also burned through more than $1M.

FWIW, Brown has held a *greater share* of her cash. Her campaign says she has over $500k on hand.
Apologies, it's 400 recurring donors to Turner from Ohio.

New: Former Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe (D) is running for a second term against three Black candidates.

I did a deep dive on his record as governor on questions of racial justice, civil rights, civil liberties and criminal justice reform: huffpost.com/entry/terry-mc…
News: @ACLUVA's @changeservant says that after McAuliffe vetoed a bill limiting mass surveillance, “He looked me in the eye and said, ‘Claire, you just need to know, I’m always going to side with the police.’”

McAuliffe denies it. (They're at odds over blame for C'ville in '17.)
The debate over McAuliffe versus @jcarrollfoy or @JennMcClellanVA is a fight over the future for Dems in Va.

Are Dem gains so tenuous they need a guy who's shown he can win? Or do they want to make history -- first Black woman Gov in the country -- with someone more progressive?

Terrific @hollyotterbein piece on the still-raging Democratic debate over the political ramifications of "defund the police" (h/t @daveweigel): politico.com/news/2021/03/2…
Holly breaks news of some official studies of the impact of "defund":

-- @guycecil of @prioritiesUSA says their polling found it "neither hurt, nor helped."
-- An adviser to @CartwrightPA found that while GOP TV ads on "defund" didn't hurt Dems more than other ads, those Democrats who put out ads explicitly renouncing "defund" and affirming pro-cop bona fides performed 1.5 points better than Biden for every 1,000 ad points.

Rep. Filemon Vela announces retirement ahead of GOP-run redistricting, via @allymutnick: politico.com/news/2021/03/2…
Vela's seat is in one of several South Texas districts where the Democratic share of the electorate shrank from 2016 to 2020. And Republicans are expected to screw over at least one of the 3 House Ds in border region along with Cuellar and Gonzalez:
Obviously there's the safe El Paso seat where Veronica Escobar, and technically that's along the southern border too. And before Will Hurd won his seat representing the vast swath of land between El Paso and Laredo, Dems often won there (Pete Gallego, Ciro Rodriguez) ...

In recent memory, has there been a more measurable impact of the effect of intellectual debate on policy than Democrats essentially adopting the left's critique of Obama-era fiscal politics and policy? ...
... People like @paulkrugman, @eliselgould and @joshbivens_DC, @DeanBaker13, @AdyBarkan, @StephanieKelton, @DanielAlpert, and @TheStalwart all argued -- often as it was happening -- that risk of fiscal stimulus being too small was far greater than the risk of runaway inflation.
These experts' success in changing how Democratic elites conceived of policy should be a source of inspiration to people pushing for change in other areas and temper some cynicism people feel about politics.

Was doing some Googling after watching "Gomorrah," the show based on the book about the Camorra, and it turns out that there is an anti-racketeering activist in Southern Italy named Luigi Cuomo.

dw.com/en/italy-camor…
Not a super uncommon last name in the Naples area, apparently: forebears.io/surnames/cuomo
Gov. Andrew Cuomo and his late father, former Gov. Mario Cuomo, were also fierce opponents of organized crime and celebratory depictions of it in U.S. entertainment.
