MD-06: Delaney (D) widens lead over Parrott (R) on the fundraising and spending front
Former U.S. Commerce Department official April McClain Delaney (D) has opened a wide fundraising lead over former state Del. Neil C. Parrott (R) in the state’s most competitive U.S. House election, fueled in part by the more than $2 million she has loaned her campaign.
Through the end of September, Delaney had spent more than five times as much money as Parrott in the race for the 6th District seat, according to Federal Election Commisssion campaign finance reports released Tuesday.
In her latest FEC report, Delaney reported raising $747,952.89 from July 1 to Sept. 30, including a $225,000 loan from her own pocket. Overall, her campaign to replace departing U.S. Rep. David Trone (D) in the 6th District has taken in $3.7 million, including $2.1 million from her own fortune.
Delaney reported spending $641,596.89 in the past three months — $209,779.15 on media buys alone. In all, she has spent $3.4 million and finished September with $323,455.10 in her campaign account.
