Dems in the Country's Hottest Senate Contests Are Crushing the Opposition in Fundraising
With fewer than four months to Election Day, Democrats in the nation’s most competitive Senate contests are crushing their Republican opposition in the money race.
Quarterly financial reports filed on Wednesday show that in the most competitive Senate contests in the country, Democratic candidates outraised Republicans in all but two. Two candidates, Sen. Martha McSally (R-AZ) and Texas Democrat MJ Hegar, had not filed their reports shortly before midnight on Thursday.
In the 13 races where The Daily Beast was able to examine finances for both parties’ candidates—contests in Arizona, Colorado, Maine, Iowa, Montana, Michigan, North Carolina, South Carolina, Kentucky, Alabama, Alaska, and two in Georgia—the Democratic candidates raised a combined $83.6 million to Republicans’ $64.8 million.
In 11 of those 13 Senate races, the Democratic candidate outraised the Republican in the second quarter.
