Democratic Congressman Ruben Gallego has been outpacing Republican Kari Lake in fundraising for their respective Senate races.
Gallego raised more than double what Lake did in the last quarter.
New campaign finance reports show Gallego’s campaign has raised more than $30 million so far, nearly a third of which came in the last three months.
During that time he spent more than $10 million but still has more than $9 million in the bank. Gallego is running uncontested in the Democratic primary.
Lake’s campaign has brought in a total of $10 million, with less than half of that coming in the last quarter. Challenging her in the Republican primary for U-S Senate is Pinal County Sheriff Mark Lamb, who has raised about $2 million in all.
Arizona’s primary is July 30.
