Fetterman leads fundraising in Pennsylvania’s US Senate race

Associated Press  

HARRISBURG, Pa. — Democrat John Fetterman is showing his early fundraising prowess in the crowded stakes for Pennsylvania’s open U.S. Senate seat ahead of next year’s election. Fetterman, the state’s lieutenant governor, reported $2.5 million raised in the three months ending June 30, leaving him with $3 million in his campaign account. Otherwise, leading the Republican money chase is Jeff Bartos, a real estate investor from suburban Philadelphia, whose campaign reported raising $567,000 in the quarter, not including loans to himself. Sean Parnell, an author and frequent Fox News guest who wrote about his experience fighting in the war in Afghanistan, reported raising $561,000, leaving almost $600,000 in his account on June 30.
