Who's Donating to the Polizzi, Seemayer Campaigns for Fenton Mayor?
Both candidates raised the same amount of money in the race to become Fenton's next mayor.
In the fight to become Fenton's next mayor, campaign committees for Mike Polizzi and Paul Seemayer have raised the same amount of cash from supporters.Â
That's according to campaign finance reports filed with St. Louis County last week and in February. Documents show that both candidates raised $4,600 in donations from contributors.Â
About $1,600 of Seemayer's donations came from a trivia night fundraiser at Joe Clark's Restaurant, which is owned by his brother.

But while the campaigns have raised the same amount of money, Polizzi's has far outspent Seemayer's on campaign materials.Â
Polizzi has spent about $4,000 against Seemayer's $900. Most of Polizzi's funds went to yard signs, website design and printing. Seemayer spent his funds on yard signs.Â
The election is slated for April 2.
