Ryan Leonard, Republican candidate for Attorney General, released his first quarter fundraising totals showing $167,790 raised during the first quarter, for a total of more than $609,000.00 for the campaign. Leonard reports $421,503 cash on hand.Leonard has been exceptionally aggressive in not only fundraising, but in generating name recognition for his candidacy. When Attorney General Drew Edmondson refused to file suit against the federal government, Leonard was one of the first voices heard criticizing Edmondson and since the entrance of Republican all-star, former Senator Scott Pruitt, Leonard has been heard on the radio and other forms of media.
Republican Scott Pruitt did not file a report. Democrat Jim Priest reported raising $86,000.
