I know he worked hard for this. From PI:
One of this week's down-ticket surprises was state Rep. Rob Teilhet of Smyrna, who was the leading fund-raiser in the race to replace Thurbert Baker as attorney general.Teilhet raised $203,569 and has $181,524 on hand. Former Dougherty County prosecutor Ken Hodges raised $128,280 and has $120,334 on hand.
Republican Sam Olens, the chairman of the Cobb County Commission, doesn't yet have any primary opposition. He raised $185,959, and has $175,143 on hand.
All three drew heavily from the legal community. The politically astute Barnes Law Group, which is dominated by a certain former governor, gave $3,000 each to both Teilhet and Hodges.
But Teilhet got additional contributions totaling $3,500 from two attorneys within that particular firm. Neither of them named Barnes.
