IN-05: Dem. Christina Hale is outraising Victoria Spartz
Democrat Christina Hale is outraising her opponent Republican Victoria Spartz in Indiana's 5th Congressional District — the latest sign that the historically Republican stronghold won't be an easy win for Spartz.
In the second quarter, Hale raised just under $410,000 from supporters, giving her roughly $726,000 cash on hand. She did not loan her campaign any money.
Meanwhile, Spartz received about $196,000 worth of contributions, including $750 from herself. She gave herself an additional personal loan of $324,000, ultimately giving her almost $170,000 cash on hand at the close of the quarter.
Including donations and loans, Spartz raised roughly $523,000.
Throughout the primaries, Hale raised more than any of the Republican candidates, including Spartz.
Meanwhile, since the onset of the primaries, Spartz largely self-funded her campaign. So far, she's given herself $1.074 million in personal loans.
