nearly $1.2 million in the bank as the Republican ramps up his re-election bid
for next year.Hutchinson’s campaign on Monday reported it raised more than $526,000 over the
past three months and spent more than $37,000. Hutchinson, who was first elected
in 2014, formally announced in May that he was seeking a second term but had
already been raising money for a re-election bid.
