Cortez Masto posts record $7.5 million in second quarter fundraising

Democratic Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto raised more than $7.5 million during the second quarter of 2022, pushing her cash on hand to nearly $10 million, her campaign announced Thursday.

With that amount raised, Cortez Masto posted a second quarter fundraising record for any U.S. Senate candidate in Nevada, another quarterly fundraising record after she previously pulled in a first quarter record of more than $4.4 million.

Cortez Masto’s campaign also touted significant support from small dollar donors during the second quarter, saying 97 percent of campaign contributions were $100 or less.
