Amy Klobuchar Raises Nearly $5 Million as She Ramps up Campaign for Minnesota Governor
The campaign says the total is a Minnesota governor race record, with donations from all 87 counties and more than 90% under $100.
- On Wednesday, U.S. Senator Amy Klobuchar's gubernatorial campaign announced nearly $5 million raised, with donations from all 87 Minnesota counties in just over two months.
- Senator Klobuchar entered the race January 29 following Governor Tim Walz's exit, and Campaign Manager Joe Radosevich stated her "grassroots donor base" stepped up because she "fights for people no matter the odds."
- Her fundraising total is more than six times that of GOP House Speaker Lisa Demuth, with over 90% of donors contributing less than $100 and $3.4 million in cash on hand.
- Army Veteran Kendall Qualls and other GOP candidates have raised significantly less, with Qualls stating, "we don't need more career political insiders" to fix problems in the state.
- As The DFL Party and the Republican Party of Minnesota prepare for endorsing conventions next month, Klobuchar faces pressure to release campaign priorities, as her website currently lacks a detailed platform.
