Ryan's congressional campaign reports 3rd quarter fundraising
U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan's congressional campaign today announced raising $566,743 in the third quarter of 2012, bringing his cash on hand total to just over $4 million as of September 30.
The campaign said in a statement that 42.5 percent of individual donations to the Janesville Republican came from Wisconsin, and that the overall totals are "even more impressive in light of Ryan for Congress halting all external fundraising activities when Congressman Ryan was selected as Governor Mitt Romney’s running mate."
“The outpouring of support that Congressman Ryan’s campaign has seen in recent months shows that voters are hungry for leaders capable of solving the problems we face as a nation," campaign manager Kevin Seifert said in the release.
Fundraising reports are due to the Federal Election Commission on Oct. 15.
