WOW: Donors embrace Rand Paul; record haul puts $12M in bank
Washington Examner ^ | Oct 5 | by Paul Bedard

Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul, already declared by some local media as the winner of his 2022 reelection campaign, has turned in a record-breaking fundraising haul of more than $4 million in the third quarter of 2021.

Officials told Secrets that donations to the Republican maverick, many from small-dollar supporters, far exceeded any other fundraising quarter for the two-term senator.

The raw numbers from the campaign show that he has raised more than $9 million year-to-date and has a whopping $7 million left on hand.

The campaign said that over 150,000 small-dollar “grassroots donors” contributed to that amount.

And when combined with his Kentucky Freedom PAC, Paul has raised a total of $15 million this year, leaving $12 million on hand.

“Sen. Rand Paul remains the leading voice against government overreach and massive wasteful spending in Washington. Voters in Kentucky agree and have shown their support in record numbers,” senior advisor Sergio Gor told Secrets.

As a Kentuckian, I can say with utmost confidence that he can’t lose. He’s loved here by a LOT more than the number that don’t like him.

He’s the best. And the ONLY Senator willing to stand up and say what most Americans think.

I bet his money isn’t coming from Big Pharma either. Why don’t the rest of these RINOs pay attention.

Yup. He and Jim Jordan are my two most respected, common sense Congress-critters.

He is an argument against term limits. 2 terms already. That gives him 12 years to solidify his consistency unlike Cruz who i think would be a good majority leader.

Good. More power (and $) for him.

He’ll be a contender in 2024 if Trump doesn’t run. But, unfortunately for him, Trump’s gonna run.

If anyone did some digging, just how many of those other Senators and Congressmen have sold out, sold out to the Chinese Communists, Big Pharma, whatever. Sen. Paul is one of the few in Congress whose constituency is actually the people of the U.S. and not some mega corporate interest.
