U.S. Rep. Tammy Baldwin, D-Wis., has raised and spent the most money of any candidate in the race to fill the U.S. Senate seat of the retiring Sen. Herb Kohl, D-Wis.
Baldwin spent $1.06 million from January to March and has $2.76 million remaining on hand to spend in her campaign, according to information from her campaign’s Federal Election Commission report submitted earlier this week.
Former U.S. Rep. Mark Neumann was the first GOP Senate candidate to announce his fundraising. From 17,000 donations, Neumann has earned almost $1.5 million for his candidacy; the largest amount in contributions of any candidate in the Republican primary race.
Tommy Thompson, the former governor, reported having roughly $790,000, with expenditures of $402,172 in the first quarter.
Businessman Eric Hovde has raised $110,000 since January, having spent $259,584 in the first three weeks of his campaign. He currently has $1.6 million on hand.
