Fung, who entered the month with over $1 million in campaign cash, outspent his Raimondo with $780,442.26.

However Raimondo did receive a large amount support in the form of out-of-state money. The filings show the Raimondo campaign benefitted from over $350,000 in combined cash from the Democrat Governor’s Association, American LeadHERship PAC, and the New England regionally SEUI 1199.
