The Bill Gibbons for Governor campaign has raised more than $415,000, according to a campaign news release.

That puts the Shelby County district attorney far behind his competitors for Tennessee's top job.

Knoxville Mayor Bill Haslam has raised about $3.8 million, Lt. Gov. Ron Ramsey has raised $1.3 million and U.S. Rep. Zach Wamp has taken in $1.2 million, according to the campaigns.

"We are thankful for the support received so far, which has come primarily from citizens in West Tennessee who know Bill and his record the best," said Gibbons campaign manager Josh Thomas.

"Their support provides an initial foundation that we will continue to build upon, and that will enable us to implement a plan we believe will win this race," he said.

The Gibbons campaign has a number of fundraising events scheduled in coming months, Mr. Thomas said.

In the Democratic primary race, only Nashville businessman Ward Cammack, who said he has raised "north of $200,000," had any preliminary figures available.

Spokesmen for the campaigns of state Sen. Roy Herron, D-Dresden; former state Rep. Kim McMillan, D-Clarksville; and Mike McWherter, son of former Gov. Ned McWherter, said their campaigns still are tallying receipts.
