Arguably the most closely watched legislative primary in Travis County. All three Republicans loaned their own campaigns a big chunk of cash, but as the candidate who has been out there longest and with the deepest local business community roots, Workman can readily afford the services of Gov. Rick Perry's former campaign heavy hitter Eric Bearse.

Bolton's numbers are interesting: Her contributions are about one-third of what she raised in the same period in 2007, but she has twice the cash on hand, and November is a long way away.

House District 48

With no primary, both incumbent Democrat Howard and GOP challenger Neil are looking at the long game. Expect donations later in the year from Neil's friends at Texas GOPAC.

House District 49

A man with neither a primary challenger nor Republican general election opponent, the question now is how much Naishtat will be assisting other local Democrats.

House District 50

Right up to filing deadline, Strama wasn't sure whether he'd get an opponent, and because the two GOPers that have filed - Pat McGuinness and Ryan Lambert - only filed their treasurer's report on Jan. 4, they don't have to submit campaign finance reports until Feb. 1.

House District 51

Again, Rodriguez wasn't expecting an opponent, so his fundraising operation has yet to get into gear. Jackson will definitely have her work cut out for her in a district that the GOP gave up on two decades ago.
