Portman Rakes In Monster Haul
Ex-Rep. Rob Portman (R) will report raising $2.35M in the first fundraising quarter, his best quarter to date.
He begins the 2nd quarter with $7.6M on hand and more than 13K individual donors.
Campaign spokeswoman Jessica Towhey said 80% of the donations have come from inside the Buckeye State.
Portman, who doesn't have a primary now that auto dealer Tom Ganley abandoned his bid in favor of a race against Rep. Betty Sutton (D), likely will have a lower burn rate than his two Dem challengers. He spent $735K in Q1.
The 2 Dems in the race, LG Lee Fisher and Sec/State Jennifer Brunner, are far behind Portman in the money chase. At the beginning of the quarter, Fisher had $1.8M in the bank, while Brunner had just $60K on hand.
