17,000 donors and nearly 33,000 donations both records for a Democratic candidate for Governor at this point in the cycle
COLUMBUS, OH – This week, Youngstown native Dr. Amy Acton announced that her campaign has raised $1.35 million at this point in the cycle and set multiple fundraising records for a Democratic challenger for Governor. Not only did Amy raise more than any Democratic challenger through June, she has more individual donors and more donations than any Democratic challenger for Governor in history at this point. Amy’s strong support has enabled her campaign to make critical investments in digital infrastructure that will allow her to raise the resources necessary throughout the campaign to compete with a self-funding billionaire.
Dr. Acton’s Fundraising Momentum, By The Numbers:
- Over $1.35 million raised
- Average grassroots contribution of just $24
- Over 17,000 donors
- Nearly 33,000 total donations
- Donations from all 88 counties
- More than 90% of contributions $50 or less
“We’re incredibly grateful for the outpouring of support we’ve received from Ohioans who refuse to look the other way while self-serving billionaires and special interests make life harder and more expensive for working families across the state,” said Campaign Manager Philip Stein. “While Vivek Ramaswamy continues to rely on personal wealth and billionaire donors to fund his race, Amy is proud of the tens of thousands of small-dollar donations from grassroots supporters in all 88 counties. We’re excited to continue to bring people together from all sides of the political spectrum who know she’s the right choice for Governor.”
