On April 23, John Hickenlooper sent out a fundraising e-mail claiming that he was close to getting on track to  catching up with Republican gubernatorial candidate Scott McInnis in the fundraising department. And how. Hickenlooper reportedly raised $1.1 million in the first reporting period of the year, which ended April 25. That is about as much as McInnis raised in the fourth quarter of 2009 and the first quarter combined. McInnis reportedly raised $550,062 in the first period and has raised about $1.5 million since he became a candidate.  And Hickenlooper hasn't even really started to campaign yet. He still had some $880,000 on hand at the end of the reporting period.  Republican Dan Maes told Karen Crummy that he raised about $62,000 from 700 contributors in the period. The candidates will release their full reports next week. LINKS: Hickenlooper raises $1.1 million in first fundraising quarter. By Karen Crummy.
