Il-13th Betsy Dirksen Londrigan is continuing to show her strength by raising
almost $300,000 more than incumbent Congressman Rodney Davis in the latest FEC fundraising quarter, which ended June 30. Dirksen Londrigan now has just under $2.25 million cash on hand, while Congressman Davis lags behind with $1.85 million. This is the third quarter in a row that Dirksen Londrigan has outraised Congressman Davis, a sign that momentum is on her side heading into November.
Even more important is WHERE Betsy's money has come from. Majority is from in-district while Davis's money comes from the outside. The national GOP PACS will have to throw millions AGAIN. Davis's vulnerabilities are countless. Davis has wrapped his arms around trump and last few weeks has gone pretty much silent about trump.
Betsy is now a seasoned campaigner and has spent nearly 2 years since her narrow loss to Davis to cover every inch of Il-13th. Meeting and holding townhalls every where from coffee shops to larger gatherings. COVID has put a damper of course now. While Davis has spent 4 terms hiding from his constituents. I see gains by Betsy in the rural areas will happen. The downside is college vote is going to be hindered but this is being addressed by her campaign and the associated county democratic groups.
