Lunsford’s campaign told The Associated Press that he raised $3.1 million in total during the second quarter and will have $1.3 million in cash on hand in Federal Election Commission filings this week.
The AP reports that McConnell’s campaign will report having raised $3 million during the second quarter. McConnell’s latest FEC filings, from April 30, showed his campaign as having $7.7 in cash on hand. |
