DFL state Sen. Tarryl Clark has raised $1.8 million since July in her bid to unseat Republican incumbent Rep. Michele Bachmann in Minnesota’s Sixth District.
That brings Clark’s total fundraising numbers to just under $4 million this cycle. While that’s a huge sum that tramples most sitting U.S. House member’s fundraising numbers, its still trailing well behind Bachmann, who announced earlier this week having raised $5.4 million in the same time period. Her total campaign war chest now sits at about $10 million.
Clark reported having about $868,000 cash on hand. The full reports for both campaigns are expected out later Friday.
