The 2022 election cycle is already making its way into the history books, with candidates reporting unprecedented fundraising hauls only three months in.
In both House and Senate races dating back to 1999, four of the five largest fundraising hauls through the first three months of an election cycle came this year. The extraordinarily early influx of donations indicates that record-breaking political fundraising from the 2018 midterms and the 2020 election is here to stay.
In his first fundraising period as majority leader, Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) raised an astonishing $8.3 million from January through March, easily the largest first-quarter total ever for a congressional candidate. That figure was buoyed by wealthy donors eager to show their support: only 2 percent of Schumer’s haul came from small donors giving $200 or less.

First-year senators who helped Democrats secure their razor-thin Senate majority and will be key to holding onto it are raising big money as they prepare for tough 2022 reelection battles.
Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-Ga.) raised $5.7 million from early January through March, his campaign told the Atlanta Journal Constitution Thursday. Sen. Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.) raised nearly $4.4 million during the first quarter of 2021, the Associated Press reported.
That’s even more than the freshman Democrats raised shortly after they launched their Senate campaigns in the extraordinarily expensive 2020 cycle. Kelly raised $4.1 million in the first quarter of 2019, an unprecedented haul at the time. Warnock raised $1.5 million during the first two months of his Senate campaign in 2020. He raised three times that amount from Jan. 26 to March 31 of this year, according to a Federal Election Commission filing released Thursday.

Former President Donald Trump has amassed 10 times more campaign cash than he had four years ago, and he’s already resuming fundraising efforts ahead of intra-party clashes in the 2022 midterms and a potential 2024 presidential run.
Trump’s leadership PAC, Save America PAC, had $85 million in the bank through March, CNBC reported this week. That’s up from $31 million through the end of 2020. The group will officially file its fundraising and spending figures with the Federal Election Commission by April 15.
Bolstered by a constant stream of online donations from diehard supporters, Trump is in a stronger financial position than he was four years ago. Through the first three months of 2017, his campaign reported having about $8.4 million in the bank. Trump began fundraising for reelection shortly after taking office, giving him a significant head start in the 2020 race.
