Bynum’s Q3 Haul is Highest Quarterly Fundraising Total Ever in State History

Happy Valley, OR — Today, the Janelle Bynum Campaign for Congress is proud to announce their third quarter fundraising haul of $3.4 million. This total is the highest amount ever raised in a single quarter by any campaign in Oregon's history—House or Senate. This impressive haul shows the strong grassroots support and enthusiasm for Janelle Bynum from Oregonians.

“The Bynum campaign’s record-breaking fundraising haul cements the campaign’s momentum heading into the final stretch of this election,” said Blakely Wall, Campaign Manager for Bynum for Congress. “It’s abundantly clear that Oregonians are ready for a change in Washington, and Janelle Bynum is the leader who will deliver for this state. Janelle has the funds, momentum, and support to defeat Lori Chavez-DeRemer for a third time this November.”

The campaign received nearly 36,000 individual donations and over 90% of contributions came from small-dollar donations, reflecting the grassroots nature of the campaign and a broad base of support.

With a little over a month until election day, Bynum’s campaign continues to gain momentum. Two recent polls show Bynum leading Chavez-DeRemer by two points. The latest poll found Bynum leading with women voters and households with a union member. Recently, National Journal listed Oregon’s 5th Congressional District in the top 10 congressional races most likely to flip in 2024, jumping up 8 spots after State Rep. Janelle Bynum’s strong primary win “instantly making this seat a top offensive opportunity for the party.”
