Hudson, who announced her candidacy in early December, had $131,000 in funds to start the year. She raised $134,000 in the reporting period and spent about $3,000.

Toscano has about $272,000 and raised about $177,000.

Toscano is one of the most powerful Democrats in Richmond. First elected in 2005, he represents the 57th District, which covers Charlottesville and surrounding parts of Albemarle County, and was minority leader from 2011 to 2018.

Other than Smith’s donation, most of Hudson’s contributors are college professors, many of whom do not live in Charlottesville. Some of the colleges represented include the University of California at Berkeley, Harvard University, Princeton University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where she earned a doctorate in economics.

Hudson also received $1,000 from Dede Smith, a former City Councilor and member of the Charlottesville School Board.

Most of Toscano’s money comes from political action committees
