Rhode Island State Representative Aaron Regunberg -- who is running in the Democratic primary against incumbent Lt. Governor Dan McKee -- announced that the campaign raised $107,816.52 during the first fundraising quarter of 2018. 

“In a campaign already experiencing the effects of dark money, with special interest conservative groups attacking my Democratic values, I am honored that so many Rhode Islanders are chipping in grassroots contributions to help us share our message of bringing the people’s voice to the State House,” said Regunberg. 

“Thanks to the support of so many Rhode Islanders we will have the resources to build the powerful grassroots campaign we need to knock every door and talk to every voter," said Regunberg.
