Zach Dembo Trounces Ralph Alvarado in Q3 Fundraising, Pulling in a $1.4 Million Haul

Alvarado’s measly $666K is less than half of Dembo’s filing as polling shows growing momentum to flip KY-06

Lexington, KY – Today, former prosecutor and Navy veteran Zach Dembo announced that his campaign raised over $1,400,000 in the third quarter and ended with over $800,000 on hand. 

Alvarado pulled in less than half of what Zach raised, posting just over $666,000 in his Q3 filing. Alvarado’s campaign is spending more money than they are bringing in, burning through over $700,000 over the last quarter and ending with just under $360,000 on hand.

This haul shows that Zach is well-positioned to finish the final stretch of the campaign strong, and ultimately flip this open seat.  

Zach’s fundraising comes as multiple public polls now show him taking a lead over Alvarado, and several national race raters moving the likelihood of Zach winning in his direction.

Olivia Dupree, Zach’s campaign manager, made the following comment: 

“It’s not easy running a competitive race, going up against every political establishment, and not taking any corporate PAC money,” said Olivia Dupree. “However, Zach knows Central Kentucky. This is his home district, and like his neighbors, Zach knows that the high costs straining everyone’s wallets are a result of a corrupt, do-nothing Congress. The support we are receiving, whether it’s a small-dollar donation or a first-time volunteer signing up to knock doors, tells us that we are doing everything we need to get Zach’s message out there and really deliver for Central Kentucky.”
