Thompson raises $2 million in 6 weeks - WKOW 27: Madison, WI Breaking News, Weather and Sports

MILWAUKEE (WKOW) -- Tommy Thompson says his campaign raised more than $2 million over six weeks for the U.S. Senate race against Democrat Tammy Baldwin.

Thompson and Baldwin must report their latest fundraising totals for the three-month period through the end of September on Monday.

Thompson says his campaign was struggling after the August 14 Republican primary, but since then fundraising has been "exceptional."

Even with the big numbers, Thompson says he doesn't expect to have as much as his Democratic competitor Baldwin, but says he will be competitive with her in television advertising in the final four weeks of the campaign.

Baldwin's spokesman John Kraus says he does not know when she will announce her total raised.
