The Republican Governors Association raised $33.1 million in the first quarter, besting the Democratic Governors Association by nearly $10 million during the first three months of the election year.
The RGA’s record-setting fundraising pace for the 2022 cycle amounted to a 40% increase over the group’s first-quarter haul four years ago, as the GOP played defense in a midterm election that boosted Democrats to victory in governor’s races in battlegrounds across the Midwest.
This uptick reflects favorable political winds for Republicans as the party, backed by the RGA’s money and manpower, attempts to recapture governor’s mansions in Kansas, Michigan, Wisconsin, and elsewhere.
The RGA also has begun reserving television time for the fall in states like Arizona, where the GOP is playing defense, and states such as Kansas, Michigan, Nevada, and Wisconsin, where it is on offense.Meanwhile, the DGA raised $23.25 million in the first quarter, marking a 180% improvement over the first three months of 2018. The group said in a press release that the total raised equaled its largest quarterly haul in history.
