FL-15: Laurel Lee has outraised Pat Kemp more than 4-to-1 as she seeks re-election in CD 15
U.S. Rep. Laurel Lee has raised more than $2 million toward her re-election bid through September. That’s four times the amount collected by her Democratic opponent, Hillsborough County Commissioner Pat Kemp.
Federal Election Commission reports show the Thonotosassa Republican raised more than $330,000 in the third quarter for her re-election campaign. Additionally, her sponsored leadership committee, the Florida Freedom Fund PAC, raised another $52,000.
Lee closed the quarter with $1.42 million in cash on hand for her re-election campaign, while the Leadership PAC had about $113,000.
Kemp, who filed against Lee in April, has raised north of $455,000 and had less than $222,000 of that left as of the end of September.
Kemp raised $195,000 over the third quarter. She also stepped up spending in that quarter, pumping more than $125,000 into the race. Lee in the same three-month period spent almost $187,000.
