WASHINGTON (AP) - Sen. Dianne Feinstein's re-election campaign is reporting that she raised nearly $950,000 in the final three months of 2011 as she works to overcome the disappearance of an estimated $4.7 million from her campaign coffers.

Feinstein and several other Democratic officeholders and political groups employed Kinde Durkee as treasurer before discovering last year that their campaign accounts had far less
money than they thought. Durkee is facing a federal mail-fraud charge.

Feinstein quickly replenished her campaign, loaning it $5 million. In all, her campaign account has about $6.6 million, mostly from the loan.

Tuesday was the deadline for federal officeholders and candidates to report their year-end fundraising activity.

Feinstein campaign adviser Bill Carrick said donors have been motivated to help because of the alleged theft.
