Republicans contact record 70 million voters ahead of midterm elections, doubles down on minority outreach
The RNC raised nearly $274 million this cycle
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}FIRST ON FOX: The Republican National Committee (RNC) claims to have broken records with over 70 million voter contacts made this cycle-to-date, with just four weeks to go until the highly anticipated midterm elections.
The RNC announced their plans exclusively to Fox News Digital, revealing that they raised over $273.6 million this cycle-to-date.
"The Republican Party is out-raising, out-hustling, and out-working the Democrats, and we’re ready to catapult our candidates to victory in one month," RNC chairwoman Ronna McDaniel said in a statement. "Families cannot afford this failed Democrat one-party rule, and Americans will reject Biden and Democrats’ reckless spending, soft-on-crime policies, and open border agenda and vote for commonsense over crazy."

According to the release, the RNC made major headway over the past few years, after not hitting 70 million voter contacts in 2018 until the last week of the election cycle.

"The RNC opened our community centers earlier than ever to ensure Republicans continue to make inroads with minority voters to help us achieve our goal of taking back Republican majorities in 2022," the press release detailed their prioritized work among minorities in Asian-Pacific American, Black, Hispanic, Jewish, Indian American, and even Native American communities.
