The two issue committees fighting over the initiative, which seeks to ban the hunting of mountain lions, bobcats and lynx in Colorado, have collectively spent around $3.8 million in the campaign so far. This is based on information filed with the Colorado Secretary of State as of Thursday, Oct. 24. There have been no additional expenditures reported by either group since Oct. 14, with the next filing deadline on Oct. 28.
Cats Aren’t Trophies, the citizen group that petitioned to get Proposition 127 on November’s ballot, has brought in slightly more funding and spent more than Colorado’s Wildlife Deserve Better, the main issue committee opposing the measure.
