Tierney Recently Raised More Money Than Democratic, Republican Challengers

U.S. Rep. John Tierney has raised more money than his competitors recently and has $1.3 million to spend on his campaigns, reported The Boston Globe.

Tierney raised $209,188 from July 1 to Aug. 20, which is more than the $153,814 raised by his Democratic challenger, Seth Moulton, and the $128,775 raised by lead Republican candidate Richard Tisei, reported The Globe.

Tierney is also beginning to run his first ads of the campaign (watch the below video).

Moulton has already been running an ad that takes aim at Tierney and Congress. The ad has been bashed by some Democratic leaders.

The Democratic primary is on Sept. 9. If Tierney is victorious in September, he is slated for a rematch with Tisei, who the Salem Democrat narrowly beat two years ago.
