FIRST ON FOX: Republican Gov. Brian Kemp of Georgia hauled in nearly $7 million in fundraising the past two months as he runs for re-election this year in a rematch against Democratic gubernatorial nominee Stacey Abrams, whom he narrowly defeated four years ago.

Kemp’s re-election campaign brought in $3.8 million from May 1 through the end of June, according to figures the governor’s political team shared first nationally with Fox News on Wednesday. And the allied Georgians First Leadership Committee raised $3 million during the same two-month period.

And Kemp will report roughly $7 million cash on hand between his re-election campaign and his leadership committee.

While the leadership committee can raise unlimited donations, a judicial ruling prevented the panel from fundraising until the GOP gubernatorial nomination was decided.
