Former Marine fighter pilot Amy McGrath launched her bid to remove Senator Mitch McConnell on Tuesday, and is already reporting big fundraising numbers.
NBC News reports: “Kentucky Democratic Senate candidate Amy McGrath raised more than $2.5 million in the first 24 hours of her campaign against Mitch McConnell — over $1 million of it coming in just the first five and a half hours after she announced, according to her campaign. McGrath campaign manager Mark Nickolas said it's the most ever raised in the first 24 hours of a Senate campaign.”
