The Republican Governors Association, already big spenders in the Minnesota gubernatorial election, put another $1 million into the race this week by way of Minnesota Future, according to a campaign finance report (pdf) filed Thursday.
The cash infusion is just the latest in a string of big spending on the election from both the RGA and the Democratic Governors association. This week’s $1 million from the RGA comes after it spent $830,000 as of its third-quarter filing in Minnesota.
For the DGA, the group has spent $750,000 as of the last reporting cycle, but with the RGA upping its ante in the final push of the campaign to almost $2 million, it’s possible the DGA will seek to follow suit.
