Capitol Watch reports:

The GOP senate candidate raised $1.3 million in the latest fundraising cycle. That brings Linda Lingle’s total to $3.1 million — a heck of a lot of dough.

Press release quote from the GOP Senate candidate:

We have experienced a surge of momentum in the numbers of volunteers who are signing up to help, and have added 1,544 new contributors in just 90 days. …

I am very grateful and appreciative that 3,089 individuals have invested in my campaign. …

No word yet on how Democrats Mazie Hirono and Ed Case did during the January-March cycle.
