The Democratic challenger to Mitch McConnell is breaking all the fund raising records in Kentucky.

Kentucky Secretary of State Alison Lundergan Grimes, the Democratic challenger to Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), raised more than $4 million from April through June, breaking a state fundraising record.

In a press release, her campaign also announced that Grimes had pulled in a total of $11.3 million in her U.S. Senate run and had $6.2 million cash on hand at the end of June.

The $4 million-plus raised in a single quarter surpasses the previous $2.9 million record for a Senate race in Kentucky — a record that McConnell set in 2008.

“Kentuckians are coming together to invest in our campaign because they recognize that Alison Lundergan Grimes will bring a new generation of leadership to the U.S. Senate,” Grimes campaign manager Jonathan Hurst said in a statement.

I'm just tired of the lies and nonsense coming from the GOP, so this is my little contribution to combat the nonsense!
