Democratic U.S. House candidate Kathleen Williams reported Monday that she raised $2.3 million in campaign funds for three past three months – nearly doubling her total for the entire campaign.
Williams, a former state legislator from Bozeman, is in a close race with Republican state Auditor Matt Rosendale for Montana’s only U.S. House seat. A Democrat hasn’t won the seat since 1994.
“Montanans continue to rally around Kathleen because they know that, unlike Matt Rosendale, she’ll go to Congress and be a true independent voice for them,” her campaign manager, Jeff Allen, said Monday. “Momentum is clearly on our side as we head into the final stretch of this campaign.”
