Wisconsin Democrats outspend Republicans by more than 2-to-1 in latest filing

The Democratic Party of Wisconsin outspent the Republican Party of Wisconsin by a margin of 2-to-1 during the past month according to new state campaign finance reports.

Data also show that with just more than 30 days until the November election, committees affiliated with both parties are driving resources into legislative districts made more competitive by new voting maps passed earlier this year.

From Aug. 22 through Sept. 23, the Democratic Party of Wisconsin’s main fundraising committee brought in more than $6.2 million. More than a third of that, $2.25 million, came from LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman of California. Democratic Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker donated $2 million to the party.

The Democratic Party spent $4.3 million and ended the period with around $5.6 million in the bank.
