The Republican candidate took in $1 million more, but the Democrat still has a big edge in cash on hand.
U.S. Senate candidate Steve Garvey raised more money than his opponent, Rep. Adam Schiff (d-Calif.), in the spring as the two compete for the late Sen. Dianne Feinstein’s California seat.
Mr. Schiff’s campaign declined to comment on the fundraising totals.
Mr. Garvey has less cash on hand, however, with nearly $3.3 million compared to Mr. Schiff’s nearly $6.5 million, according to information provided to The Epoch Times by Mr. Garvey’s office.
July 15 filings were yet not available through the FEC’s website.
Individual donations made through political party websites have boosted both campaigns.
“I appreciate every dollar contributed to our mission of bringing civility and leadership back to Washington D.C.,” Mr. Garvey said in a statement on X Tuesday.
The poll showed 90 percent of Republicans favored Mr. Garvey while independents were more evenly divided with 53 percent favoring Mr. Schiff and 45 percent picking Mr. Garvey.
Mr. Schiff barely won the March primary election among a crowded field of candidates, earning 31.6 percent of the vote, or about 2.304 million. Mr. Garvey came in second with 3,478 fewer votes. He took in 31.5 percent, or 2.301 million votes.
