Maine Democrat Challenging Susan Collins Outraises GOP Senator by $7 Million

Looking at updated fundraising reports submitted before a Thursday deadline set by the federal government, The Bangor Daily News found that Maine House Speaker Sara Gideon, Collins' leading rival, has outraised the U.S. senator by nearly $7 million.

According to the fundraising reports, Gideon managed to raise more than $8 million during the pre-primary period, bringing her up to more than $22 million in total funds raised. The House speaker spent a total of $7.2 million during that period, leaving her with $5.5 million in cash on hand.

Meanwhile, Collins raised $3 million during the pre-primary period, bringing her fundraising total this cycle up to more than $16 million.

During the pre-primary period, she spent $3.6 million, according to the filings, leaving her campaign with $5 million in cash on hand, less than Gideon.

About that she doesn't seem concerned at all, just like she says she believed Kavarape and that drumpf wouldn't commit election fraud - again. This is why she will lose.
