Josh Shapiro, the current governor of Pennsylvania, has a huge amount of money for his upcoming election. He has $30 million, which is a new record for the state. This is a lot more than any other candidate has ever had before an election. Shapiro is a Democrat and he is running for his second term. He is very popular and many people think he could even run for president in 2028.
Shapiro is expected to face Stacy Garrity in the general election. Garrity is a Republican and she is the state treasurer. She has not yet said how much money she has for her campaign. The deadline for candidates to report their campaign funds is January 31.
Shapiro is not expected to have any serious competition in the primary election, which is on May 19. The deadline to get on the primary election ballot is March 10.
Shapiro's $30 million is a lot more than the previous record. He set the previous record in 2022 when he reported $13. 4 million at the start of the year. He went on to spend more than $70 million on his campaign that year, which was also a record.
Pennsylvania is an important state in the upcoming presidential election. It is considered a battleground state, which means it could go either way in the election. Shapiro's strong showing in the 2022 governor's race has made him a rising star in the Democratic Party.
