CLARK RAISES $308,000 IN JUST NINE WEEKS
More than 2,400 donors help Clark set pace as one of the top challengers in nation
SAINT CLOUD, MN – State Senator Tarryl Clark set a break-neck pace in the race for Minnesota’s Sixth Congressional District, raising $308,015 in just nine weeks. Clark, who entered the race mid-quarter on July 28th, becomes one of only a few challengers nationwide to raise more than $300,000 in a single quarter.
Clark’s 2,412 donors contributed an average of $107. The campaign finished the quarter with just under $270,000 in the bank.
“I think our strong start is a testament to the desire for change across the district,” said Senator Clark. “Minnesota’s families want a representative who is more interested in getting things done than in generating national headlines. They’re working hard every day, and I’m going to work every day for them.”
Clark has already earned more than a dozen endorsements in her campaign for Congress, including the Minnesota AFL-CIO, Minnesota Nurses Association, SEIU, AFSCME, and the Saint Cloud State College Democrats; as well as the support of elected officials and thousands of Minnesotans from across the district.

Maureen Reed raised $130,000 in the 3rd quarter according to MN Publius.
