WASHINGTON — Out-of-state money has flowed into Missouri Republican Sen. Josh Hawley’s campaign fund in the weeks since he played a leading role in the effort to overturn the 2020 election.
Hawley’s campaign reported this week more than $3 million in fundraising for the first three months of the year, his strongest financial quarter since 2018 when he was running to unseat incumbent Democrat Claire McCaskill.
The total is all the more striking because he’s been abandoned by the corporate PACs that announced they would not give to lawmakers who supported overturning the election. Some, including Hallmark’s PAC, asked for refunds of past donations.
