Lt. Gov. John Fetterman said he raised more than $3.9 million for his U.S. Senate bid in the first fundraising quarter of 2021.
Mr. Fetterman, the former mayor of Braddock, said Thursday that he’s received 140,000 contributions in the first months of the race and has raised a higher total than any candidate for U.S. Senate in Pennsylvania ever has.
Mr. Fetterman is pursuing the Democratic nomination for the Senate seat up for election next year. The incumbent, Republican Pat Toomey, is not seeking re-election.
