Oregon secretary of state candidate Shemia Fagan has raised more than her opponents combined

One Democratic candidate running to be the state’s top elections official has raised more than the other two combined, according to campaign finance data.

Sen. Shemia Fagan, a Portland Democrat who entered the secretary of state’s race less than three months ago, reported raising more than $764,000 as of Monday morning.

Sen. Mark Hass, a Beaverton Democrat who decided to run last summer, reported $393,000 in contributions so far this election cycle. Jamie McLeod-Skinner, a Democrat and former 2nd Congressional District candidate, also announced her candidacy for secretary of state last summer. She reported $311,000 in fundraising as of Monday morning.

Those figures are likely out of date because Oregon law allows candidates to wait 30 days to report contributions and spending during most of the year and seven days in the 42 days before primary and general elections.
