John Hickenlooper announced today that his campaign raised more than $2.1 million in the five weeks since he launched his campaign to be Colorado’s next U.S. Senator. The campaign received more than 21,000 grassroots contributions during the third quarter, and the average grassroots donation was $26.
95% of total contributions made during this period were $200 or less, and Hickenlooper’s donors span 59 of Colorado’s 64 counties. The campaign ended the quarter with nearly $1.7 million cash on hand–all without taking a dime from corporate PACs.
“We’re grateful to have received support from across Colorado for our campaign to bring change to Washington,” said Hickenlooper. “Each and every person who chipped in recognizes that Colorado needs a new independent voice, a Senator who reflects our values and will work to bring people together and get things done on issues that matter to Coloradans–like expanding access and controlling costs for health care, and tackling climate change head on.”
