“Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) has raised $20 million so far in the 2024 cycle, according to a source familiar with his political operations, besting his total for the 2022 cycle,” Punchbowl News reports.
“Cornyn is running to succeed Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell as Senate GOP leader, and fundraising is a key element of his pitch to fellow Republicans. Aside from McConnell, Cornyn has been the top Senate GOP fundraiser for the last 15 years.”
