Pennsylvania Gov. Candidates to File Campaign Finance Reports

Pennsylvania's gubernatorial candidates are facing a deadline for filing public reports on their campaign spending.

Democratic challenger Tom Wolf and Republican Gov. Tom Corbett must file their final pre-election reports by Friday.

Spending in the race appears likely to set a new record, with the total surpassing $62 million when the last reports were filed a month ago.

That includes money spent during a four-way Democratic primary battle earlier this year.

The current campaign spending record of nearly $70 million was set during the gubernatorial race of 2002. Democrat Ed Rendell spent most of that to beat then-Auditor General Bob Casey in the primary and then-Attorney General Mike Fisher in the general election.

This year's general election is on Nov. 4.
