how much did jamal rent his building to Evan's campaign? there are posters on the upper floors so he must have rented the entire building.

Six thousand dollars and we still get to stare at the broken windows on that dump.

I'm sorry, TWENTY FOUR THOUSAND DOLLARS total so far to Douglas Development for rent. There was another 18k on the last finance report for the Evans campaign.

What I'd love to know is why is Evans paying so many people from Maryland for canvassing?
