Walker raises $5.2 million in latest period, pushes past $30 million mark
Gov. Scott Walker raised almost $5.2 million in the latest fundraising period, pushing his overall haul since January 2011 past the $30 million mark.
Walker also reported spending $8.4 million in the pre-election period of April 24 to May 21 and had $1.6 million cash on hand.
The campaign said it collected 54,112 contributions during the almost four-week period; 39,813 of those contributions were $50 or less.
His fundraising shows little signs of slowing down ahead of next week's recall election. He has already reported raising more than $800,000 since May 22 in donations of $500 or more.
Tom Barrett's campaign had not yet released his fundraising total for the pre-election period, and his report had not yet been posted to the GAB site this afternoon.
