More than seven months after losing his U.S. Senate bid, Republican Herschel Walker’s campaign still has nearly $4.5 million in its account. And some donors are pressing to get their contributions back.
The most recent financial report, filed Saturday, showed six donors received refunds totaling $15,600. Among them is Jim Kingston, an Atlanta insurance executive who is the son of former U.S. Rep. Jack Kingston.
“Herschel has always been known for his generosity,” said Kingston, who received a refund for his $1,000 donation in June, “and I am glad he is willing to reimburse those of us who worked really hard on his campaign.”
