Indiana Gov. Holcomb Keeps Padding Huge Campaign Cash Lead

Lauren Chapman/IPB News

Indiana Gov. Eric Holcomb has continued adding to his already huge campaign cash advantage over his potential Democratic rivals.

New state campaign finance reports filed Wednesday show the Republican governor raised nearly $2 million in the last six months of 2019, leaving him with about $7.25 million in the bank for his 2020 reelection bid.

The governor’s fundraising dwarfs that of the two Democratic candidates, health care business executive Woody Myers and tech business executive Josh Owens.

Myers reported raising $180,000, while Owens raised $84,000. Both candidates say they are starting more aggressive fundraising.
