Democratic Opponent Lundergan Grimes Out-Fundraises McConnell
Democratic Opponent Lundergan Grimes Out-Fundraises McConnell
Kentucky Democratic candidate Alison Lundergan Grimes reported on Tuesday that she had raised more money in the third quarter than her opponent, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY).
Lundergan Grimes reported raising a total of $2.5 million from July to the end of September while McConnell raised $2.3 million. McConnell's campaign manager, Jesse Benton, said that fundraising quarter was his best so far, according to the Associated Press. Grimes's campaign said 13,328 unique contributors donated to her campaign.
But McConnell still has far more cash on hand. The top Senate Republican has $10 million cash on hand while Grimes has roughly $2 million.
