“Democrats outraised Republicans in about 90 percent of the most competitive House districts in the country between October 1 — October 17,” NBC News reports.
“Out of 107 House races rated as Toss Ups, Lean or Likely contests by the nonpartisan Cook Political Report, 97 saw the Democrat outraising their GOP competitor. In 70 of those races, the Democratic candidate will enter the final weeks of the election with more cash on hand.”
