California candidate for US Senate out-raises opponent by $1.2 million
Steve Garvey.
– U.S. Senate candidate Steve Garvey outraised U.S. Senate candidate Adam Schiff by $1.2 million in the second quarter of 2024. Garvey raised $5.44 million to Schiff’s $4.2 million from April 1 to June 30, according to public Federal Elections Commission filings.
Since announcing his campaign on Oct. 10, 2023, Garvey received contributions from 110,000 individuals, with 67,000 contributing in the second quarter of 2024 alone.
“Californians are tired of the status quo, they are tired of the division, they are tired of Washington D.C. not working together, they tired of Adam Schiff representing his party bosses rather than them, and now they are speaking up with their checkbooks,” Garvey said. “From day one, voters and donors alike have resonated with my message, that I am running for all of the people with an agenda of building consensus and legislating with common sense and compassion. I appreciate every dollar contributed to our mission of bringing civility and leadership back to Washington D.C.”
