The Delco businessman also raised more than each of his opponents, bringing in $1.7 million, including donations from unions. Dave Whiteĭave White has the honor of being the biggest spender out of all the candidates – Democrat or Republican – during the last reporting period. However, with a large segment of GOP voters undecided, this financial statement doesn’t necessarily spell doom for his campaign. Still, Gerow faces some hurdles to securing the GOP nomination, with the political consultant polling in the single digits according to a survey recently conducted by The Hill. Charlie GerowĬharlie Gerow didn’t raise a lot in the most recent reporting cycle, but he also didn’t spend a whole lot, leaving him among the top five candidates in terms of cash on hand at the end of the reporting period. He only brought in $589,000 – putting Corman at a cash disadvantage heading into the home stretch of the primary cycle.

Corman spent more than $2.3 million during the most recent reporting period, with more than $1.5 million of that devoted to TV ads. This likely isn’t the financial statement that state Senate President Jake Corman wanted to see one month out from the primary election. A survey released this month from The Hill and Emerson College shows the former congressman with a 4-point lead over the incumbent state senator, though more than a quarter of GOP voters said they were undecided. Recent polling on the Republican primary race for governor, however, shows Barletta leading the Republican field.
Barletta raised just $430,000 this reporting period and ended March with $356,000 on hand. Lou Barletta is another candidate who makes up for his lack of fundraising with polling success. A recent poll from The Hill and Emerson College found Mastriano leading the primary race with support from 16.2% of voters, while a separate poll from Fox News found that Mastriano is one of four candidates with double-digit support. The Franklin County state senator also had another thing going for him that most candidates don’t – success in recent primary polls. Doug Mastriano probably didn’t pull in the level of contributions he was looking for, but Mastriano still finished the reporting period with more than $1 million in the bank, making him one of just two GOP candidates to do so.
Looks like that Commonwealth Partners endorsement is beginning to pay dividends. Not only did McSwain rank among the top two GOP candidates in terms of fundraising, but he also pulled in nearly $6 million in in-kind contributions, including $4 million in TV ads from the Commonwealth Leaders Fund, a political action committee affiliated with the Commonwealth Partners Chamber of Entrepreneurs.
