The Democrat has built a cash advantage over his likely GOP opponent, Kari Lake.
Democratic Rep. Ruben Gallego raised a whopping $10.4 million for his Arizona Senate bid in the second quarter. That’s his largest quarterly fundraising total this cycle and brings his total raised to $31 million, according to numbers shared first with POLITICO. Gallego ended June with $9.2 million in cash on hand. Gallego is battling Republican Kari Lake for retiring independent Sen. Kyrsten Sinema’s seat.
Nearly 50 percent of Gallego’s 119,000 donors were giving to his bid for the first time, a statistic the campaign pointed to as a sign of momentum. And 95 percent of donations were $100 or less. Democrats have felt increasingly optimistic about their odds in Arizona, especially with Lake as the likely Republican nominee.
