A super PAC boosting Gov. Doug Burgum's (R-ND) 2024 presidential campaign has been shelling out major sums recently, all while the long-shot candidate's poll numbers remain steadily tiny, campaign finance disclosures show.
Burgum, who has mostly self-funded his White House bid, clocked in at 0% in national GOP primary polls taken in September and late August, all while former President Donald Trump polls at over 56%, Gov. Ron DeSantis sits at around 13%, and businessman Vivek Ramaswamy hits over 7%, according to a RealClearPolitics average.
The increased spending from Best of America PAC comes after it reported raising about $11 million between January and June. Candidates polling close to Burgum include Gov. Asa Hutchinson , who like Burgum was at the first GOP debate in Milwaukee in June, and Larry Elder, the conservative radio talk show host and ex-Republican California gubernatorial candidate.
"You would expect that a candidate like him wouldn't enter the race unless he had done some preliminary work and identified donors who would support him," Republican political strategist Matt Kenney told the Washington Examiner."He's trying to make an honest effort at inspiring and gaining momentum in his campaign to keep it going. He is going to try with those resources to create some momentum.
