Mills started July trailing Nolan in campaign cash
Stewart Mills' campaign for Congress in Minnesota's 8th District raised $338,000 during the 2nd quarter of the year.
That brings his total raised for the campaign to nearly $1 million.
As of July 1, Mills had almost $430,000 in campaign cash on hand.
Mills, of the Mills Fleet Farm family, is a first-time candidate who's running against DFL U.S. Rep. Rick Nolan.
Nolan has not released his final second quarter fundraising numbers, but a Nolan campaign official says the congressman ended the second quarter with about $575,000 in campaign cash, having raised more than $280,000 during April, May and June.
