In the final look at fundraising numbers before the November general election, Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Mandela Barnes reported that he had out-raised his opponent U.S. Senator Ron Johnson (R-Oshkosh) by almost $6 million. The most recent reporting period, which ran from October 1 – 19, saw Barnes raise $8.5 million, spend $9.4 million, and have $2.5 million in cash on hand. Johnson raised $2.6 million, spent $3.6 million, and had $3.5 million in cash on hand to finish the reporting period.

The pre-general report comes less than two weeks after the October quarterly report that showed Barnes outraised Johnson $19.5 million to $11.6 million between July 21 and September 30.
