| Description | Democratic state Rep. Raj Goyle posted what even the GOP said Friday were impressive fundraising numbers during the first three months of his campaign for Kansas' 4th Congressional District.
Goyle, from Wichita, reported receiving more than $403,000 in contributions during the three months ending Sept. 30. He kicked off his campaign for the south-central Kansas seat in July. He ended the third quarter with about $367,000 in campaign cash.
The seat is open because Republican Rep. Todd Tiahrt, who has held it since 1995, is running for the U.S. Senate. Five candidates are seeking the GOP nomination, and none of their fundraising for the last quarter matched Goyle's, according to reports available so far from the Federal Election Commission.
"It's an impressive amount for one quarter - you can't take that away from him," said Lisa Burgess, spokeswoman for the Kansas Republican Party. "He's a formidable challenger." |
