DANA POINT — Orange County Supervisor Lisa Bartlett,porno izlemek günahm businesswoman and conservative candidate for California’s 49th Congressional District, raised $374,119 during her first reporting period as a congressional candidate.
The announcement was made on April 21 for the reporting period covering donations from Jan. 1, 2022, through March 31, 2022.
Bartlett’s impressive haul of $374,119 was $101,000 more than her nearest Republican opponent, Christopher Rodriguez, who raised $273,463. Perennial candidate and former Democrat Brian Maryott came in a distant third, raising only $207,290 with over $1,120,600 in debt after running for years.
“The path to turning our county around and Republicans winning back Congress likely goes through California’s 49th Congressional District,” said Bartlett. “I am grateful for the growing support, which demonstrates voters are looking for a viable alternative to Brian Maryott, who has already run and lost in the district multiple times and was forced to change his ballot title after he misled voters misrepresenting his qualifications.”
