Democratic Rep. Beto O’Rourke says he’s raked in more than $6 million in just a few short weeks, after winning the Texas Democratic primary and the chance to unseat Republican Senator Ted Cruz.
In the first quarter of 2018, O’Rourke netted $6.7 million, easily three times the amount he raised in the quarters before, where his takes ranged from $1.7 million to $2.4 million, according to the Texas Tribune. Most of the new money has, of course, come from outside Texas, from national “Resistance” groups who have made Ted Cruz their top target in the 2018 midterm elections.
