The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee said it saw its best fundraising period of the year last week, bringing in over half a million dollars after the Supreme Court limited the scope of the Voting Rights Act.
House Democrats’ campaign arm raised about $522,000 in the roughly 48 hours between the court issuing the ruling Wednesday and Friday morning at 10 a.m., the group told CQ Roll Call.
“Republicans – with the help of this conservative Supreme Court – are attempting to rig the midterms so that they can stay in power,” DCCC spokesperson Courtney Rice said in a statement. “But just like their backfiring redistricting scheme, this will also fail.”
