The former interim U.S. attorney and Karl Rove aide announced Friday he raised the money by the end of the third quarter fundraising deadline this week. Griffin announced his candidacy on Sept. 21.

 

Griffin is seeking the Republican nomination to challenge Vic Snyder, a Democrat seeking re-election. Other Republicans in the race include Little Rock restaurant owner Scott Wallace and David Meeks of Conway, a former insurance project manager.
