Frisch’s campaign said it received about 48,000 donations from all 50 states and all 27 counties in the congressional district. The average amount donated was just under $36, and 98% of donations were $100 or less, the campaign said.

The Closest Races 2024
Adam’s fundraising so far shows a significant change from the 2022 cycle, when he loaned his campaign $2.2 million of the total $6.7 million that came in. Only $2 million of $4.4 million in donations that cycle came from people giving $200 or less in total. Boebert’s first-quarter fundraising is slightly lower than the $752,000 she raised in the same quarter of 2021. At this time in 2021, her average itemized donation was just under $582, compared to $608 in the most recent filing.
Like many far-right candidates, Boebert has long raised more from small donors than the average candidate. In the 2020 and 2022 campaign cycles, her campaign raised more from people giving $200 or less than people giving more than $200, FEC records show.
The unexpectedly close margin for Boebert, one of Congress’s staunchest supporters of former President Donald Trump, was the latest indication that Trump’s influence on Republican voters could be waning amid a nationwide fight over the direction of the Republican Party. It is a question some Republican leaders raised in partly blaming Trump for their dismal midterm results even as the former president forged ahead in launching his 2024 presidential bid.
