Calvert, Rollins Release Q2 Fundraising Totals

Fundraising Totals for Calvert and Rollins Exceed $3.5 Million

CORONA — Republican Congressman Ken Calvert and his Democratic challenger Will Rollins on Tuesday released their fundraising totals in the FEC’s second quarter of 2024. Between the two, they raised more than $3.5 million.

Calvert raised nearly $1.4 million , bringing his total raised for the cycle to $5.78 million, according to his campaign. The sum is the strongest fundraising quarter ever for Congressman Calvert and equips him with more than $3.6 million cash-on-hand heading into Q3 — $2.2 million more than Calvert had on hand in the same quarter two years ago.

“I am humbled and grateful for the generous support I’ve received throughout this campaign,” Calvert said in a statement. “People are chipping in at record pace because they are tired of the same failed policies from Sacramento and Washington, D.C., and trust that I will continue fighting to secure our border, stop runaway crime and bring down costs for working families. This race is only just beginning, and I look forward to continuing the hard work and winning in November.”

Democratic Congressional Candidate Will Rollins simultaneously announced that his campaign raised more than $2.2 million in the second quarter and will file with more than $4.7 million cash-on-hand in the upcoming July report.

“I’m incredibly grateful for the awe-inspiring support,” Rollins said in a statement. “Our fundraising success speaks clearly to the fact that we are putting in the work and building the war chest necessary to flip this purple seat come November. Our coalition continues to grow, as we’ve earned support from law enforcement, organized labor, small business owners, and everyday Riverside County residents who know that we desperately need a new generation of leadership to rid Washington of its corruption and take on the challenges facing working families. And that will be my focus when I get to Congress: delivering good jobs, wages, and benefits for Riverside County.”

Following the end of June, Rollins’ campaign now has more than 44,000 unique donors with more than 95% of donations in the second quarter at $100 or less. Rollins’ campaign had built a $500,000-plus cash-on-hand lead by the end of the first quarter.

The massive fundraising haul comes on the heels of other major positive updates for the Rollins campaign. As reported by the Washington Examiner, the first poll in CA-41 gave Rollins a one-point lead over Calvert, with independents favoring Rollins by more than 30 points.
