Joel Brennan Reports $665,000 Raised in Primary Period, $1.2 Million Cycle-to-Date, Powered by Wisconsin Donors
Milwaukee, Wis. — Democratic candidate for governor Joel Brennan today reported raising $665,000 during the January through June 30 primary reporting period, bringing his cycle-to-date total to more than $1.2 million. At a moment when Wisconsin Democrats are looking for a candidate they can trust, and who can win in November, Brennan has the vision, the resources, and nothing to hide.
“This campaign has been built donor by donor, block by block, across Wisconsin,” said Joel Brennan. “You can trust these numbers, and you can trust that I will show up and do the job. I am the strongest Democrat to take on Tom Tiffany this fall, and the support we have built across this state is proof of that.”
Last week, Brennan released his own opposition research file and challenged every other candidate in the race to do the same. The stakes of this election are too high to hand Tom Tiffany a weapon he can use against Wisconsin Democrats all fall — and Brennan believes voters deserve to know exactly who they are nominating before they vote on August 11.
