Pocan outraises Roys in 2nd CD Dem primary
State Rep. Mark Pocan paced the 2nd CD Dem field in fundraising during the first quarter of the year, disclosing $209,377 raised between January and March in his latest campaign finance report.
Fellow Madison Dem Rep. Kelda Roys reported $114,812 raised during the period, but slightly outspent Pocan during the quarter with $70,929 in disbursements to Pocan's $67,909.
Pocan, however, more than doubled Roys' cash on hand total, with $345,870 in the bank to $172,780 for Roys.
Dane Co. Treasurer Dave Worzala, who's also in the Dem field to replace U.S. Rep. Tammy Baldwin, reported raising $135,207 in the period last week, but $100,000 of that total came from the candidate. He spent $45,817 and finished the quarter with $341,336 cash on hand.
Madison attorney Matt Silverman reported raising $8,320 and spending $2,185 in the quarter, with $10,397 cash on hand.
Mt. Horeb Republican Chad Lee announced he'd make another run at the 2nd CD in late February.
