Ossoff’s Q2 Fundraising Widens Cash Gap with Collins

The large small‑donor haul gives Ossoff more money for ads and ground operations, a lead that could shape the race as outside GOP groups prepare big spending.

Overview

  • Ossoff disclosed on July 15 that he raised $20 million in the second quarter and ended the period with about $42 million on hand, according to his campaign and news reports.
  • The Ossoff campaign reported more than 474,000 contributions in the quarter, saying nearly 90% were $100 or less and the average donation was about $42.
  • Collins reported roughly $2.1 million raised in Q2 and about $2 million available, and his campaign framed its receipts as coming from everyday Georgia supporters.
  • Both campaigns are trading claims about donor origins while Republican‑aligned super PACs and President Trump’s endorsement of Collins leave the door open for large outside spending.
  • Recent polls show Ossoff leading by varying margins, underscoring that the fundraising edge could translate into more advertising and turnout capacity before early voting begins in mid‑October.
