MADISON, Wis. (WRN) — The presumed Republican nominee for Wisconsin governor has outraised all Democrats combined.
But analysis of the most recent campaign finance reports shows just three conservative billionaire donors account for the bulk of the $8.7 million 7th District Congressman Tom Tiffany raised from January 1 through June 30.
The Republican Party of Wisconsin received $4 million from Uline shipping supply company owners Richard and Elizabeth Uihlein and $2.5 million from ABC Supply CEO Diane Hendricks which went to Tiffany.
Among Democrats, former Lieutenant Governor Mandela Barnes reported raising $841,358 during the period, followed closely by Madison state Representative Francesca Hong’s $708,883, former head of the state Department of Administration Joel Brennan raising $665,627 and Madison state Senator Kelda Roys raising $527,431.
