Wis. delegation reports fundraising totals
U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan once again raised the most in quarterly campaign contributions in the Wisconsin House delegation, according to the latest reports filed with the Federal Election Commission.
But his first announced Dem opponent, Kenosha County Supervisor Rob Zerban, reported more than $100,000 raised during the quarter in his first FEC report, well ahead of the pace of most previous Ryan challengers. Zerban's campaign spent $16,734 during the period and had an ending cash on hand total of nearly $205,000.
Ryan, R-Janesville, reported raising more than $890,000 during the second quarter, which ran from April 1 through June 30. He spent nearly $220,000 in the quarter and reported a cash balance of $3.8 million.
