Evans Outraises Fillios 3-to-1

As you know, Coeur d'Alene City Council candidate Chris Fillios has been painting political opponent Amy Evans as a "progressive liberal" or something like that. Here, Evans lists here qualifications for the council, plus her accomplishments in volunteer roles already.

Coeur d'Alene City Council candidate Amy Evans has raised more than three times as much campaign money as political opponent Chris Fillios, according to 30-day, pre-election campaign reports. Adams has raised $9752 to Fillios' $2903. The Coeur d'Alene Firefighters PAC made the biggest contribution to Evans campaign, $1000. Two others made $500 contributions -- Ronald Nichols, Sandy Patano, Gary Johnson, and Ian Smith. 48 individuals gave at least $100 to her. Evans' financial report here. Fillios has loaned himself $2554 of the $2903 listed in contributions. Fillios' financial report here.

Question: Based on what you've seen so far, who would be better at uniting our badly divided community -- Evans or Fillios?
