O’Rourke Crushed Cruz In Fundraising
July 11, 2018 at 10:27 pm EDT
By Taegan Goddard


Beto O’Rourke (D) “raised an eye-popping $10.4 million in the last three months — catching up to Sen. Ted Cruz’s (R) six-year haul in just over 15 months as he seeks to topple the Republican darling,” the Dallas Morning News reports.

“The El Paso congressman’s ability to vastly outpace the incumbent is no longer in doubt. Cruz collected about $4 million during the same period, and O’Rourke has extended his streak of raising more than the incumbent in one of the nation’s costliest races.”

his heart out around Texas, while Cruz thinks he has it in the bag. I really think he has a chance, and nothing (bar trumps removal) would make me happier.

Go Beto! GOTV
