STATE & NATIONAL Republicans lead Democrats in money race THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON Sure, Bob Dole trails in the presidential polls. But the Republican Party already can claim victory in at least one crucial ’96 contest —the ever-accelerating money race. The GOP’s flagship committee brought in an eye-popping $92.5 million during the last three months, out-raising the Democrats by 2-to-l, according to election finance reports released Sunday. Since the election cycle began in January 1995, the Republican National Committee has raked in $239 million, mostly in contributions from individuals or corporations. Although they lag behind the GOP, the Demo crats are breaking their own records, too. The Democratic National Committee took in $46.5 million last quarter and reported receipts of $177 million since the start of last year. Campaign financing has become a hot issue in the presidential race particularly “soft money” donations to the political parties that commonly reach six figures or more. On Sunday, Dole, whose presidential cam paign has benefited from GOP funding, called for abolishing the use of such “soft money” in Monday 5:30 p.m.—Red Ribbon will have a meeting in 202 Dey Hail.

The Republican nominee has seized on hundreds of thousands of contributions to the Democrats from an Indone sian conglomerate to attack President Clinton’s ethics. Clinton also has called for campaign financing reform, and his campaign aides said Dole had come late to the issue. Even as candidates talk of further restricting contributions, reports to the Federal Election Commission show the Democrats have doubled their fund raising during the 1993-94 season, when the national party brought in $83.1 mil lion. And the Republicans also are on track to double the $133.5 million in receipts they re ported in 1993-94. Much of the money raised by the national parties is farmed out to the states. Some goes straight to the candidates, and mil lions are spent on advertising. Going into the final month of campaigning, the Republican National Committee reported $3.8 million in cash on hand and no debt.
