The final campaign finance reports before Election Day show Democratic Senate nominee Cheri Beasley continuing to outraise her Republican opponent, Rep. Ted Budd. On Thursday, the Federal Election Commission required candidates to submit reports to mark how much they raised, spent and the amount of cash they have left. The reports include data through Oct. 19.
