WASHINGTON (Reuters) - House of Representatives Republicans who supported former President Donald Trump s attempt to overturn his election defeat on average raised less in campaign funds in the first three months of the year than those who opposed it, federal records show.
Sixty-five House Republicans who voted in January to accept election results that put President Joe Biden in the White House raised about $360,000 on average for their re-election campaigns, according to a Reuters review of Federal Election Commission disclosures through Thursday s filing deadline.
That is about 25% higher than the roughly $290,000 on average raised by re-election campaigns for 136 House Republicans who voted in support of Trump s false claims that his defeat was the result of widespread election fraud.
