WASHINGTON, D.C. — Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly continued to widen his fundraising lead over GOP challenger Blake Masters, who still trailed the incumbent despite heavy spending on Masters’ behalf by outside conservative groups.
Kelly, a Democrat, had raised nearly $75.5 million as of September 30, and still had $13.2 million on hand, according to his most recent Federal Election Commission reports. Masters reported raising $9.9 million in the same period, with $2.8 million in the bank.
Libertarian Senate nominee Marc J. Victor was a distant third, reporting that he had raised $129,103 with $1,606 on hand at the end of the third quarter.
But those same FEC reports show that outside groups have spent almost $50 million against Kelly compared to $9 million to oppose Masters.
