WisDems Reports Largest-Ever Campaign Finance Report
MADISON, Wis. — The Democratic Party of Wisconsin will report $15.8 million raised during the most recent reporting period, the most ever raised in a single state reporting period by the Democratic Party of Wisconsin, and by the end of the year will have reported the most ever raised to its state account in a single year, surpassing even 2024. The Democratic Party of Wisconsin’s remaining cash on hand totals eclipse the party’s numbers at this point in the 2022 cycle, when it reported $6.2 million raised and $1.2 million on hand.
“After years of progress and hard work, Wisconsin Democrats are within reach of a trifecta. Our unprecedented fundraising success in this final stretch means our candidates up and down the ballot will have the organizing muscle and the resources they need to cross the finish line and win,” said WisDems Chair Devin Remiker. “Despite record-shattering spending by right-wing billionaires, Wisconsin Democrats and our grassroots supporters have stepped up to fight back. On November 3rd, we will finish the fight and end the Republicans’ war on working people once and for all.”
Seventy-six percent of contributions to the party during this period came from grassroots donors giving $100 or less. Prior to today’s report, the Republican Party of Wisconsin had reported only 569 individual contributions this year on their state report, compared with 7,231 for the Democratic Party of Wisconsin. WisDems’ grassroots strength is also clear on federal reports, where the Republican Party of Wisconsin has reported 849 individual contributions in 2026, compared to 7,408 individual contributions to the Democratic Party of Wisconsin.
The latest report covers fundraising and expenditures from Sept. 24 through Oct. 19, 2026.
