WASHINGTON — Democrat Lucas Kunce easily outraised Sen. Josh Hawley in his first three months after declaring that he would take on the incumbent Missouri Republican in the 2024 Senate race, centering his campaign around Hawley’s role in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.
Kunce raised $1.14 million in the first three months of his bid to challenge Hawley, about $320,000 more than the $816,445 Hawley raised through both his campaign account and his victory committee, the two accounts he uses to bring in contributions.
“We’re not only proud of raising a record amount of money, we’re proud of how we did it,” said Caleb Cavarretta, Kunce’s campaign manager. “Lucas continues to focus on real people in his fight against Josh Hawley, not massive corporations that have bankrolled Hawley for years and helped him strip this state for parts.”
