Clark raises $1.8 million in third quarter

DFL 6th District congressional candidate Tarryl Clark says she raised $1.8 million for her campaign between July and September for a total of nearly $4 millon.

The campaign said it had $868,000 on hand for at the end of the reporting period. It also said it believes Clark has raised more than any other Democrat running for the House this year--incumbent or challenger.

Incumbent Republican Michele Bachmann's campaign said earlier this week that it raised a whopping $5.4 million in the third quarter, for a campaign total of $10, a new record in Congressional fundraising.
